This volume is dedicated to the 565 Broome Street skyscraper, the
first residential building conceived by Renzo Piano and designed by
the Renzo Piano Building Workshop in the city of New York.
Developed by Bizzi & Partners, the double tower occupies a
corner space in the SoHo district, close to the Hudson River. Rich
and fascinating iconography and a text by Federico Bucci and Carol
Willis describe the design, the main features of the building, and
how it relates to the city and the light that surrounds it in a
unique way. The photographic selection is divided into thematic
chapters, starting from the representation of the building s urban
context and then illustrating the different parts of the project,
the formal and structural characteristics of the towers, and the
interiors. It also describes the contemporary artwork by Susumu
Shingu that occupies the space between the towers.
