A long-ignored power plant was torn down on the East River waterfront at 626 1 Avenue and replaced with a pair of striking, slanting towers in 2017. One 540 feet in height and the other 470 feet tall, the luxury towers were designed by the Lower Manhattan firm of SHoP Architects, and are linked by a skybridge 300 feet above the ground. It is the first such connecting structure built in Manhattan since the 1930s. The Skybridge includes a wellness center, juice bar, a 75-foot lap pool, and resident lounge. Known as The American Copper Buildings, these Murray Hill towers feature layouts ranging from studios to 3-bedroom apartments.
The American Copper Buildings overlook St. Vartan Park, and the East River Esplanade provides further opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The Queens Midtown Tunnel is one block away, while the 3rd Avenue and 42nd Street station connects to the 4, 5, 6, 7, G and S trains less than half a mile away.
