130 William is an 800-foot-tall (240 m), residential high-rise tower located in the Financial District of Manhattan. The building was developed by Lightstone and designed by Ghanaian-British architect Sir David Adjaye.^[2]

History

Lightstone purchased the former 12-story office building at 130 William Street in May 2014 for $60 million after the previous owner defaulted on a mortgage from East West Bank.^[3] Eight months later, the company unveiled Hill West Architects' plans for a 50-story tall mixed-use building that would reach a height of 581 feet (177 m) and contain a hotel and 188 apartments.^[4] However, new plans filed in early 2017 removed the hotel portion and increased the building's size to its current height.^[5] The project name was Wall Street Tower until in 2017, when the name was changed to 130 William Street.^[6]

In March 2017, the project secured $305 million in financing and began construction.^[7] Facade installation began in October 2018.^[8] The building topped-out in May 2019.^[9] 130 William has also been recognized as the fastest selling luxury condominium development in New York City in 2018 and 2019.^[10]

Construction of 130 William was completed in June 2023.^[11]

Architecture and design

130 William's custom hand-cast façade features large-scale arched windows and bronzed detailing. It rises approximately 800 feet (240 m) tall at 66 stories and consists of 242 residences and over 22,000 square feet (2,000 m²) of amenities.^[9] The building incorporates a new public plaza park, also designed by Adjaye, as well as over 20,000 square feet (1,900 m²) of retail, both located at the building's base.^[12]^[13]

130 William is adjacent to the Fulton Center transit hub of the New York City Subway. The building is also immediately adjacent to Tribeca, South Street Seaport, the Brooklyn Bridge.^[14]
