Hiking
The "8 Spruce Street" skyscraper in Lower Manhattan, which was inaugurated in 2011, can be recognized by its structured and corrugated facade made of glass and aluminum - also known as the Beekman Tower. At 267 meters high, the purely residential building will dominate the southern skyline until the completion of One World Trade Center.
It is also known as "New York by Gehry" because it is architect Frank Gehry's first skyscraper.
