Central Park Tower at 217 West 57th Street in Manhattan was designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, with AAI Architects as architect of record, for Extell Development Company with Shanghai Municipal Investment Group. The infobox gives construction from September 17, 2014 to 2020. The text says it topped out on September 17, 2019, and also that it was finished by December 2021.

It has 98 above-ground stories, though the top story is numbered 136, and reaches 1,550 feet (472.4 m). The highest habitable floor is 1,417 feet (431.9 m). The core and superstructure are reinforced concrete with a steel grid, and a cantilever extends over the Art Students League building. A landmarked 1909 facade at 1780 Broadway is retained.

It holds 179 condominiums, a Nordstrom retail base and a private club on floor 100. Cost is $3 billion in the infobox and $3.1 billion in a later section.
