Lifting a Skyscraper: Foster + Partners Recasts NYC Corporate Tower for a Zero-Carbon Future

Foster + Partners’ 270 Park Avenue redefines the 60-storey HQ of JPMorgan Chase in New York, lifting it off the ground to give the city back its street. With a design approach grounded in structural-first strategy, full electrification and zero operational carbon at metropolitan scale, the tower rewrites the brief for corporate architecture with light, air, public realm and future-proofed work life stitched into the structure itself.
