OMA to bring double-skinned glass addition to Tiffany& Co. flagship store in Manhattan
A substantial renovation and expansion of the Tiffany & Co. flagship retail and office tower in Manhattan is currently under construction by OMA New York.

Originally built in 1940 by neoclassical architects Cross & Cross, the building renovation is set to include new exhibition, event, and "clienteling" spaces to help the building keep pace with "the growing and diverse program needs of the brand," according to a press release. According to project text, OMA Partner Shohei Shigematsu and OMA Associate Jake Forster are the main designers for the project at OMA New York. The project will lend a clearly defined circulation plan to the building as well as new energy efficient amenity and retail spaces along upper levels.
