111 Murray Street (formerly known as 101 Murray Street or 101 Tribeca) is a proposed residential skyscraper project being developed by Witkoff Group and Fisher Brothers in Tribeca, Manhattan, New York City.

Overview

According to Winston C. Fisher, of Fisher Brothers, the building will have 156 luxury condominiums.[1] The tower will stand 792 feet (241.4 m) to its pinnacle, and is expected to have 2,100 square feet (195 sqm) of retail space on the ground floor.[2] Once complete, the building would be the third tallest structure in Tribeca, after 30 Park Place and 56 Leonard Street, and matching the height of the Woolworth Building.[3] A 10,600 square-foot (985 sqm) plaza is planned to sit adjacent of the tower.

Construction

The tower is being constructed at the site of the former St. John's University building, at 101 Murray Street. In May 2015, the developers were close to finalizing the project's financing with help from a Chinese insurance company.[4] In June 2015, demolition of the structure has almost completed, and once removed, foundational construction is expected to last a year. Crews will be drilling the foundation instead of driving piles. It will take another year for the tower to top out, and one more year until the building is finally occupied, in 2018.[5]
