Thank you Architectural Digest India for highlighting AS+GG’s Central Park Tower as one of the five unique buildings to earn a spot in Guinness World Records. AS+GG's Central Park Tower is recorded as the tallest cantilevered building at nearly 1,550 feet! It’s also the tallest residential building in the world, certified by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH). Completed in 2021, Central Park Tower is an orthogonal design, utilizing the large cantilever to take advantage of the site and views. After the cantilever comes to its vertical terminus, the central tower shaft and the blade wall extend upward to a final elevation of 1,478 feet 10 inches. The residential portion begins 300 feet above the ground with 179 luxury units ranging from one to four bedrooms, studio suites, full floor, duplex, and triplex residences. Structural elements are discreetly located between the residential units, resulting in floor-to-ceiling windows with unencumbered views and layouts. Counteracting wind loads was an important part of the design process for the highest residential tower on earth. As the tower climbs vertically, the corners set back and notch, helping offset wind loads. This allows the floor area on each level to reduce and better achieve the desirable unit size and layouts of the upper two tranches, while simultaneously accommodating private terraces for special residential units. A tuned mass damper with a mass of approximately 1,100 tons improves the acceleration performance of the building and was incorporated into the tower design on the 94th floor. For an inside look at the tower, you can check out the penthouse featured in Netflix’s Owning Manhattan with Ryan Serhant!

2wI have a time-sharing multi functional dual cars lift design just for this kind of super tall luxury residential towers. It was presented at Elevcon 2023 international elevator and escalator technology Congress. Hopefully this design can be used in your next project.
