One Vanderbilt is a 67-floor supertall skyscraper under construction at the corner of 42nd Street and Vanderbilt Avenue in midtown Manhattan, New York City. Proposed by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and developer SL Green Realty as part of a planned Midtown East rezoning, the tower stands immediately to the west of Grand Central Terminal. The architect responsible for the designing was Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates.
A groundbreaking ceremony for One Vanderbilt was held in October 2016, and the tower topped out on September 17, 2019, two months ahead of schedule. When completed in 2021, the 150,000-square-meters (1,600,000 ft2) skyscraper's roof will be 397 m/ 1301 ft high and its spire will be 427 m / 1,401 ft, making it the city's fourth-tallest building after One World Trade Center and the under-construction Central Park Tower and 111 West 57th Street.
