NEW YORK CITY-Lower Manhattan will soon see a new office building, and no, it has nothing to do with the World Trade Center site. Harry Macklowe has revealed plans to develop a 110,000-sf building on Houston Street between Broadway and Crosby Street.

The project is a seven-story glass-and-steel structure to be called 610 Broadway. Officials at locally based Macklowe Properties say plans for the building have already been approved by the Buildings Department and groundbreaking is scheduled for March. Construction is expected to take about a year. The site is currently occupies by an Amoco gas station, a car wash and a three-level underground parking garage.

Macklowe is calling 610 Broadway the first modern glass building developed in SoHo. Studios Architecture of San Francisco has come up with a dramatic design that maximizes the use of an insulated clear glass curtain wall, cross joist supported steel beams throughout the structure and an 80-foot-high interior atrium on Broadway.
