About 10 Hudson Yards
The South Tower is another name for 10 Hudson Yards, an office tower finished in 2016. It rises on Manhattan's West Side, in New York City, near Penn Station, Chelsea and Hell's Kitchen. The tower belongs to Hudson Yards, an urban renewal project that redevelops the West Side Yard of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. During planning it was called Tower C. The first tenant to move in was Coach, on May 31, 2016.
Groundbreaking took place on December 4, 2012. Foundation work occupied the first half of 2013, and work on the superstructure began in August 2013. Excavation removed 54,000 cubic meters (70,000 cubic yards) of soil, and 8,400 cubic meters (11,000 cubic yards) of concrete was poured. A subsidiary of Tutor Perini won the construction contract in March 2013, and the tower topped out in November 2015. It was the first tower in Hudson Yards to be completed, since it is the only tower in the development that does not sit on the artificial platform covering the West Side Yards.
Kohn Pedersen Fox designed the tower. Thornton Tomasetti served as structural engineer, Jaros, Baum & Bolles handled the MEP engineering, and Langan was the lead civil engineer. On its south side, the facade juts out above the High Line's 30th Street spur. The building was designed to hold over 7,000 employees. In January 2019 the developers presented a 9.1-meter sculpture by the American artist Jonathan Borofsky, made for the west lobby.
How it prints
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
| Print size | Landmark height | Scale |
|---|---|---|
| 160 mm default | 73 mm | 1:3,750 |
| 200 mm | 92 mm | 1:3,000 |
| 256 mm | 117 mm | 1:2,344 |

- Slanted roof, notched sides
- The roof is cut at a slant and the sides step inward in places. Printing slowly and using layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm help the sharp edges stay crisp.
- A tight grid of facade lines
- A fine grid of window lines covers the facade. Print friendly adapts it to the print scale; Full detail keeps it, which suits a larger print or a fine nozzle.
- One piece with the ground
- 10 Hudson Yards is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. 10 Hudson Yards takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About this model
10 Hudson Yards is one of more than 2,300 landmark models in Mini Skyline. They are made with AI, and each one is checked from four sides in its real surroundings before release. Everything around it is built from OpenStreetMap and Overture map data. If you would rather print the shape from map data, turn off Landmark models in the Buildings settings.
Common questions
Is there a 10 Hudson Yards STL I can download?
Mini Skyline builds the file for you in your browser and exports 3MF, which every major slicer opens. If you need an STL, open the 3MF in your slicer and export it from there.
How big can I print it?
Any print size from 40 mm across. 10 Hudson Yards grows with the print: about 73 mm tall on the default 160 mm print. For a model larger than your printer bed, Project Mode splits the area into tiles.
Is it free?
