NEW YORK CITY — Two of the five buildings that make up Columbus Square, a high-rise mixed-use project located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, New York City, are scheduled for completion next month. The two buildings include the 15-story 801 Amsterdam Avenue tower and the 29-story 808 Columbus Avenue tower. The other three buildings, 775, 795 and 805 Columbus Avenue, will be delivered throughout the rest of the year. All five buildings will feature green rooftops, including a 2-acre rooftop park at 808 Columbus Avenue. Sustainable features include the use of solar panels, energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems, recycled construction materials and recycling facilities in the buildings. Upon completion, Columbus Square will contain 710 rental residential units and 300,000 square feet of retail space. The apartments will range from studios to four-bedroom penthouses. Retail tenants already announced include Whole Foods Market, Michaels, Modell’s Sporting Goods, Border’s Books & Music, TJ Maxx, Crumbs Bakery, Chase and Bank of America. SLCE Architects designed 801 Amsterdam Avenue, with Costas Kondylis & Partners serving as project architect for the other five buildings. The project is being developed by the Chetrit Group and Stellar Management.
