The stakes don't get much bigger than this.
Real estate heavyweights Related Companies and Oxford Properties are teaming up to create Hudson Yards, a brand new neighborhood on Manhattan's far west side.
Due to be completed by 2024, the 28-acre mega project will have nearly 20 million square feet for offices, retail, and residential, with tenants like white glove clothier Nieman Marcus and culinary legend Thomas Keller.
It's reportedly the largest real estate project in American history.
Let's take a look.

This September, Hudson Yards got its very own subway station.

The 7 train stop is just one way Hudson Yards is changing New York.

Beyond the train, the project is remarkable for a few reasons. The $20 billion dollar project is getting a 35,000 ton platform to support its skyscrapers.

One that will continue to operate after all the buildings are built.
The tech going into the platform is ridiculous. Gigantic caissons are being dug into the earth to support the buildings, like super-sized stilts.

The entire complex will have 16 skyscrapers from multiple architects, as this visualization from Visualhouse shows.

The office building 10 Hudson Yards topped out in October, meaning that its vertical construction is complete. Tenants will include Coach, L'Oreal, SAP, and VaynerMedia.

It will also feature the Public Square, a 14-acre open space similar to the High Line.

The Public Square will be kept cool by an advanced heat system — since those trains below will be running mighty hot.

Speaking of the High Line, Hudson Yards will be viewable from the far north end of the beloved elevated park.

Related senior vice president Thad Sheely tells Tech Insider that Hudson Yards isn't a "readymade city."
"We’re not building just an office complex," he says. "We’re not building just a residential complex. We’re not building just retail. We have a little bit of everything."
The penthouse views at 15 Hudson Yards will be pretty impressive.

30 Hudson Yards will have swank office space — also with world class views.

The area that's being turned into Hudson Yards used to be a hole in the city, Sheely says, because the rail yard precluded any building on top of it. But now Hudson Yards is turning that space into a high-end crossroads.
