TEI Group awarded contract at 1865 Broadway, NYC

TEI Group will install 4 escalators and 2 hydraulic elevators at 1865 Broadway.
On Broadway, between Columbus Circle and Lincoln Center rises AvalonBay Communities' latest project: a 33-floor, 172-unit building to host condos, rentals and more than 70,000 square feet of retail in its podium. Addressed at 1865 Broadway, the Skidmore Owings & Merrill-designed tower anchors the southwest corner of West 61st Street, a block north from The Shops at Columbus Circle and a half-block west of Central Park. The tower replaces the 12-story former headquarter building of the American Bible Society, which AvalonBay purchased for $300M in early 2015.

Late last year, we announced that the building topped out its 416-foot superstructure. As crews begin to enclose its concrete frame, new signage has been installed over the sidewalk scaffolding announcing that 70,000 square feet of retail are up for grabs on the building's lower floors. Target will occupy roughly half of the 70,000 square feet of retail space offered.
