Abstract The Spiral, a supertall tower at the Hudson Yards Zoning District of NYC is an
new iconic commercial office tower. The spiraling terraces throughout the height of the
building creates unique outdoor spaces at each level for its occupants while introduces
structural challenges unlike common office towers. Innovative structural solutions and an
integrated connection design and steel detailing delivery process proved to be a key factor
in the success of the project.
