Mixed-Use High-Rise Façade and Envelope Construction in Midtown
Located at 515 Ninth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, LANA is a mixed-use development combining residential units, hospitality, and retail space within a reinforced concrete structure. The building includes a luxury hotel at its lower levels and residential units above, reflecting the growing demand for integrated urban living in New York City.
Positioned near Hudson Yards, one of Manhattan’s fastest-developing districts, the project features a modern exterior defined by white modular aluminum façade panels and high-performance building envelope systems.
MGR Restoration supported the construction of the building’s façade and exterior systems, contributing to the installation of curtain wall components, roofing systems, and structural façade elements.
Projects of this scale require seamless coordination, advanced façade systems expertise, and precise execution across multiple construction phases.
