Kicking off our annual Turkey Week rundown of stalled projects in New York City is The Torch, a 1,067-foot mixed-use supertall skyscraper at 740 Eighth Avenue in Midtown, Manhattan. Designed by ODA with SLCE Architects as the architect of record and developed by Extell, the 52-story structure is planned to span 875,372 square feet and yield an 825-room hotel topped by a public outdoor observation deck with a drop ride attraction in the signature stemlike column. The property would also feature lower-level retail space, a restaurant on two of the upper floors, a VIP lounge, and a pool deck for hotel guests. The property is located along Eighth Avenue between West 45th and 46th Streets on the border of Times Square and Hell’s Kitchen.
