Extell Development Company purchased the site in January 2012 for $61 million and sold it to Ceruzzi Properties in August 2014.[3] Initial plans filed in June 2014 indicated the building would be a 52-story, 502 feet (153 m) hotel with 764 rooms designed by SLCE Architects.[3] However, renderings revealed in September 2015 showed the tower would be a 64-story, 803 feet (245 m) condominium tower.[4] In 2015, the developers secured a $65 million loan on the development's land from Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.[5]
Construction began in mid-2016 and topped out during November 2017.[6] In August 2017, the developers received a $300 million construction loan from Madison Realty Capital.[7] The building was completed in early 2019.[8] In February 2020, Korean firm Meritz Securities provided a $350 million inventory loan against the building's remaining unsold condominiums.[5]
