Carnegie Hall Tower is a 60-story skyscraper located on 57th Street in New York City. Part of a cluster of four tall buildings (along with CitySpire Center, Metropolitan Tower and One57), the tower was built in an architectural style in harmony with its western neighbor Carnegie Hall, a New York landmark.OverviewThe tower is 231 meters tall and was completed in 1991 following the design by Cesar Pelli first conceived in 1987. This design won an Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects in 1994.The Carnegie Hall Tower seems impossibly slim from the front however has wide sides facing its neighbors, the Russian Tea Room and Metropolitan Tower on the east and Carnegie Hall on the west. It was clad in brick and glazed brick of several colors, with precast concrete lintels above windows, and painted metal bands at intervals of six floors. The large cornice atop the shaft is an open trellis of wide-flange steel sections. The lobby and common rooms are covered in marble and granite with hardwood and brass accents.The structural system for this extremely slender tower is two joined tubes of cast-in-place concrete, designed by engineer Jacob Grossman of Robert Rosenwasser Associates.
