在纽约市现代艺术博物馆（MOMA）上方建造一个超级固定的公寓塔需要示例性的团队合作。Because there are few interior columns and progressively smaller floors, WSP’s engineers designed an exoskeleton of irregularly shaped diagrids cast in concrete and connected via steel boxes called nodes—the building’s most striking exterior feature and its support system, which works with the tuned mass damper on the 75th floor to keep the building steady. Sorbara Construction Corp., the superstructure concrete subcontractor, then poured the cast-in-place building using a concrete pump and Liebherr electric tower cranes. A particular difficulty was that some nodes weighed more than 18,000 lb and had to be installed before placing formwork, reinforcing steel and concrete.
总承包商Lendlease使用了三台自我攀爬的塔架起重机（随着建筑工作爬上向天空攀登）和两个提升机。莫玛（Moma）在53 West 53上建造了三个新的画廊，以前被称为53W53，博物馆的扩展位于公寓之下。Lendlease副总裁兼项目主管Mark Lubrano说：“我们为这些临床专栏提供了非常精心的定制系统。”“每个平板都有重复使用的模板”，但自定义建造，因为地板随着它们的升高而改变形状和尺寸。“除了顶点，别无选择，”卢布拉诺说。
