Facade installation is ongoing at the Continuum Company’s 18-story residential condo tower at 38 East 35th Street in the Murray Hill neighborhood of Manhattan. Several historic buildings previously occupied the site, including the former home of the Metropolitan Synagogue and the Community Church of New York, who sold the site to the developer in 2024.
