1014 - Construction Manager RFQ & RFP

 

After much anticipation, the German government approved plans in 2023 to convert the former Goethe House at 1014 Fifth Avenue in New York City into a new platform for trans-Atlantic dialogue and exchange.

Based on the design proposal An Open House / A Sharing House / A House as Home by British architect Sir David Chipperfield, together with New York-based KARO Architects and Paratus Group, 1014 will yet again become a vibrant and welcoming place for experts and creatives from both sides of the Atlantic.

The six-story Beaux-Art style building in Manhattan’s Upper East Side, across from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, has belonged to the Federal Republic of Germany since 1960. Once home to former U.S. Ambassador to Berlin, James W. Gerard, it then served as the headquarters of the Goethe- Institute New York. Since 2017, 1014 Fifth Avenue has provided a space for ideas organized by the independent not-for-profit organization 1014 Inc. The beautiful building with a rich cultural tradition and trans- Atlantic legacy stands once again on the cusp of change.

1014 is now looking for a Construction Manager to join the design team in building a new cultural building for New York, the US, and Germany.
