50 Hudson Yards is a tower being planned as part of the Hudson Yards Redevelopment Project in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan. The planned building is to be located to the north of 30 Hudson Yards, and on the east side of the Hudson Park and Boulevard, adjacent to 55 Hudson Yards. It will add about four million square feet (370,000 m2) of space to the Hudson Yards project, along with 55 Hudson Yards. At the SW corner of 34th Street and 10th Avenue, it will replace the drive-thru McDonald's that had long-occupied the space.
In April 2014, new renderings of the 62-story, 2,300,000-square-foot (210,000 m2) building were released. The tower would be shown at a height of 1,068 feet (326 m). The building's plans were also changed; the building, originally meant to be step-like structure with a white facade, was updated to reflect a three-part structure with three rectangular components, each one smaller than the one below it.
In December 2016, a revised plan for the building was released, anchored by BlackRock investment management firm. The building will stand 59-stories (985 ft). Construction is expected to begin in 2017.
