425 Park Avenue – The first full-block office building on Park Avenue in over 50 years

Standing at almost 900 feet tall and taking up an entire block between 55th and 56th Streets, the newly completed 425 Park Avenue is a product of the remarkable skill, resilience, and craftsmanship of union contractors and the New York City District Council of Carpenters. The building will provide 667,000 square feet of office space with a new restaurant on the ground floor, and 85% of the tower’s office space has been leased by leaders of industry in tech and finance. The anchor tenant, Citadel, will occupy 415,000 square feet across 20 floors. Congratulations to the over three dozen union contractors that took part in building New York City’s new iconic office tower.

Local 1556 dockbuilders and divers with the New York City District Council of Carpenters

Local 1556 dockbuilders and divers with the New York City District Council of Carpenters are hard at work at the Living Breakwaters site with Weeks Marine, Inc. laying rock mattresses down on the water to prevent erosion while allowing natural vegetation to establish. Divers help place the mattresses underwater while the dockbuilders run the deck engines to move the barges. The project, which is estimated to cost around $60 billion, will help prevent massive storm damage following super storms like we saw 10 years ago with Hurricane Sandy.
