A Current Regional Initiative
40 Mercer is an extraordinary testament to progressive architecture and ingenious engineering. This stunning, 15-story block-long new building offers magnificent glass curtain walls with a rhythm of clear glass panes intermixed with hues of red and blue.
A building unanimously approved by the city's Landmarks Preservation Commission in what the New York Times called "a decision of breathtaking importance for the future of New York."
Jean Nouvel has conceived a building in which glass acts as both a presence, as in massively scaled transparent sliding walls, and an absence, i.e. the disappearing floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outside in.
