Commuters, visitors and neighbors have been coming and going around the corner of East 42nd Street and Lexington Avenue for more than a century.
Another big Midtown project is back on track at the site of the Grand Hyatt. A new hotel, office and retail complex had been announced before the pandemic. It’s back on track and work will include creating better and more accessible connections for commuters.

Developers toured the site with Luke Bridle, Associate Director, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
That firm is designing and planning the new building and transit areas.
“The huge benefit to the commuter is the travel distances are shortened. The number of level changes is reduced. That will mean reduced congestion,” Bridle said.
