Billionaire Ken Griffin’s Soaring Skyscraper to Redefine Midtown Manhattan Skyline

Billionaire hedge fund titan Ken Griffin is investing in a towering 62-story skyscraper at 350 Park Ave., aiming to revitalize Midtown Manhattan and lure workers back to the office after the COVID-19 pandemic. The skyscraper, designed by Foster + Partners, will feature a vibrant public concourse and incorporate air rights from St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Saint Bartholomew’s Church to support their maintenance. Mayor Eric Adams hailed the project as a symbol of Midtown Manhattan’s resurgence, while Griffin emphasized the tower’s allure for in-person work. The skyscraper is slated for completion by 2032 and is expected to boost New York City’s status as a global business hub.
