  • The largest private real estate development in U.S. history opened its doors in New York on Friday. Hudson Yards, on Manhattan's far west side, is a commercial and residential wonderland featuring some of the city's tallest buildings and most expensive restaurants and condos. Some see the project as a welcome addition to the nation's largest city. Others think its exclusive offerings mean exclusion for too many. Tony Dokoupil reports.

    You know you've made it when you can build elaborate staircases to nowhere.

    built on an area where it was one of the most dangerous part of Manhattan a few decades ago. New York wanted to be cleaned up, well there you go. You have it.

    That's pretty cool that they built it without stopping the trains

    Honestly, $5000 a month for a 1 bedroom there is less than I'd imagine. There's some luxury 1 bedrooms in Brooklyn that are almost as much.

    So happy I lived in NYC when artists, writers, musicians, bohemians, secondhand stores, etc were part of the mix.

    I think it's always funny when these mega-rich real estate projects are unveiled. They're praised for their architectural innovation and modern beauty, with plenty of high-end shopping and 5 star restaurants - but not a grocery store in sight! LOL More like a tourist destination, rather than an actual, realistically priced residential development. I'll bet half the apartments purchased by foreign "investors", will remain empty.

    The vessel look is only skin deep. It is a staircase to nowhere. This neighborhood is not for New Yorkers it's basically for rich people and tourists.

    Just another ultra modern, anonymous edifice. Could be in new york, china or dubai... not ‘unique’ in a way of fitting in with nyc

    You need to make over $200,000 a year to live in the cheapest 1 bedroom there, yet the median income for an entire household in NYC is only about $50,000. Hopefully, the increase in housing supply will cause rents to drop or at least stabilize, although that might be wishful thinking.

    I was there last week. Totally sterile, totally corporate. Lifeless. Great views though.

    So much for affordable housing, which the city desperately needs more of.

    $20-25 BILLION for this project? You could literally build a whole city with that.

    It's a beautiful addition to the skyline. It looks impressive. But the prices are insane.

    Wow, New York is going to be so expensive that working class poor or middle class is not going to be able to make it there.

    It's so obvious that CBS sold out and agreed to do a puff-piece story to counteract all the bad press this project has received. A ten minute story with one sentence mentioning the tax breaks and then no push back on the developer's answer. Great job! Not exactly Murphy Brown on that one! I really liked the surprised expression on the developer's face when told how archiectual critics thought this project looked terrible. Like he didn't already know that.

    I’ll go to gawk but as a monument to wage inequality, this is the last thing that affordable housing-starved NYC needs.
