From Ando to Zaha: NYC condo buildings designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architects

By CityRealty Staff | From Future New York Friday, March 7, 2025

Selene, #PH (Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group)

One week into March 2025, the month has already been full of news from the architecture world. Some of it was sad: Architecture firm Diller Scofidio + Renfro announced that Ricardo Scofidio, a founding partner, had died at the age of 89. Mr. Scofidio and his wife and architecture partner, Liz Diller, were the first architects to receive a MacArthur Foundation “genius grant,” and their firm’s portfolio includes 15 Hudson Yards, The Shed, and the High Line Park that changed the game for urban reuse.

The news of Mr. Scofidio’s death came shortly after the 2025 Pritzker Prize laureate was announced. Established through the Hyatt Foundation in 1979 and described as "the Nobel Prize of architecture," it honors a living architect or architects (never a firm, though) whose work demonstrates “a combination of talent, vision, and commitment." In a ceremony held at a site of great architectural significance, the winner received a $100,000 grant, a formal citation certificate, and a bronze medallion based on the designs of Louis Sullivan.

The Pritzker Architecture Prize has named Liu Jiakun of Chengdu, China, as the 2025 Laureate. His work, exemplified by the West Village project in Chengdu, demonstrates his ability to create public spaces in densely populated cities, where open space is a rarity, fostering a harmonious balance between urban density and communal areas.

This year’s ceremony will take place at Louvre Abu Dhabi, and Chinese architect Liu Jiakun will be celebrated. Mr. Liu was among the first architects tasked with rebuilding China in the years following the Cultural Revolution, and his firm’s works include academic buildings, museums, civic spaces, and commercial buildings throughout China. In any project, he is known for his use of architecture to forge community and inspire compassion.

Pritzker Prize candidates and jury deliberations are closely guarded secrets. Before the official announcement, Archinect tried to predict this year's winner using AI models. While several predicted Mr. Scofidio and/or Ms. Diller, Mr. Liu's name never came up.

“I wanted to use a world-class architect [for my building] because there’s probably a very, very good chance that I will move there” – Developer Edward Minskoff on the David Chipperfield-designed 17 Jane Street

In recent years, New York City residential developers and buyers are not embracing avant-garde and socially minded design to the extent that they have in past years. Commercial office developers, on the other hand, seem more open to creating state-of-the-art structures by well-known architects: The new, all-electric JPMorgan Chase headquarters at 270 Park Avenue was designed by Foster + Partners, the firm led by 1999 Pritzker Prize laureate Lord Norman Foster; their portfolio also includes Citadel’s forthcoming headquarters at 350 Park Avenue. 2023 laureate David Chipperfield is the designer of the forthcoming Rolex Tower at 665 Fifth Avenue.

Anchored by Citadel, 350 Park Avenue will be one of the tallest office towers in the world. It is being designed by Foster + Partners, the firm founded by Pritzker Prize winner Lord Norman Foster.

However, many of New York’s “starchitect”-designed buildings are located in highly coveted neighborhoods, where they have become dramatic additions to the skyline and set new standards for luxury. Moreover, the scarcity of available apartments in these neighborhoods and buildings have kept prices stable. Below, we look at residential buildings by Pritzker Prize laureates from 1979 to present.

“There is a wisdom in his architecture, philosophically looking beyond the surface to reveal that history, materials, and nature are symbiotic” — Tom Pritzker, Chairman, Hyatt Foundation

Habitable Sculpture, 328 Spring Street

50 Units | 26 Floors | Unbuilt

Habitable Sculpture rendering via The Vendome Group

In response to Antonio Vendome's request for "something different and beautiful" for his lot in what is now known as Hudson Square, architects Philip Johnson and Alan Ritchie submitted a design inspired by a John Chamberlain sculpture. Mr. Vendome described it as "a new concept in architecture in which a building is first conceived as a work of sculpture and then divided into units," and architecture critic Herbert Muschamp admired it for "turning contextualism on its head."

The local community was not won over, deeming the project too tall. Messrs. Vendome and Johnson found that a shorter height would alter the sculptural concept, and the 12-story Urban Glass House (see above), would rise on the site instead. Mr. Johnson passed away in 2005, but Habitable Sculpture lives on in the minds of architecture enthusiasts and Mr. Vendome - in 2018, he was on the hunt for a site for it.

660 Fifth Avenue

1,400 feet tall | Unrealized 2016

The office building at 666 Fifth Avenue would have been transformed into a mixed-use supertall skyscraper

In the mid-2010s, real estate titans Steve Roth and Jared Kushner conjured up a plan to build a 1,400-foot mixed-use supertall skyscraper at 666 Fifth Avenue designed by Zaha Hadid. According to the New York Post, Hadid had already prepared a scheme that would re-stack vertically the existing 41-story office building. With a waning super-luxury market, the scheme proved financially unviable. Brookfield Properties gained partial ownership of the cash-hemorrhaging office tower and work is now underway to upgrade the 1957 building into a state-of-the-art office tower.

848 Washington Street

34 Units | 32 Floors, 489 feet | Unrealized 2001

In 2001, developer Stephen Touhey endeavored to build a 32-story high-end residential tower at 848 Washington Street in the low-rise Meatpacking District. The design by Jean Nouvel would shoulder the High Line with two connecting buildings and provide 34 loft residences with outstanding views. Local businesses and preservationists were wary of its height and the idea of luxury residences intruding on the nightlife district. Ultimately the city refused to change the site's zoning from manufacturing to mixed-use residential.

Andre' Balazs later acquired the site and built the High Line-straddling Standard Hotel several years later. Its bridged design by Ennead Architects (formerly Polshek) has had a somewhat negative impact on the elevated park because of scaffolding and most recently a falling chunk of its facade, leading to more scaffolding.

17 Jane Street (Compass)

David Chipperfield is known for his works that honor the pre-existing yet present a modern sensibility, qualities that came in handy for his project in the Greenwich Village Historic District. It took a few trips before Landmarks, but the red brick boutique condominium was ultimately allowed to proceed, and attracted the likes of Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence and the building’s developer, Edward Minskoff.
