Five of New York City’s Most Interesting Construction Projects

In its 2018 roundup of standout developments, the Commercial Observer showcased Triangle Equities’ Lighthouse Point as one of New York City’s most compelling construction projects. Located at the foot of the Staten Island Ferry terminal, the 1.3 million-square-foot, mixed-use development is reshaping a long-underutilized stretch of the St. George waterfront. Lighthouse Point integrates 115 luxury rental units, a 175-room Westin hotel with event space, office and coworking uses, and curated retail—anchored by a fresh food market and public waterfront plaza with over an acre of open space.

The feature spotlights Lighthouse Point as a leading example of destination-focused placemaking, combining residential, commercial, and cultural programming within a transit-connected hub. It also underscores Triangle Equities’ design philosophy: to activate historic waterfronts through transformative public/private redevelopment that catalyzes local economies, supports community amenities, and enhances regional connectivity.
