On a sunny morning last week, a few Forbes reporters donned hard hats and neon yellow vests to tour Hudson Yards, the massive 28-acre development being constructed in one of Manhattan’s last undeveloped areas, Midtown’s far western edge. It’s the brainchild of Related Company’s billionaire developer Stephen Ross, whose firm says it’s the largest private real estate project in the nation. 

Four years after breaking ground, the first building, 10 Hudson Yards, is set to open. Luxury handbag maker Coach, which purchased roughly a third of the building’s space as the anchor tenant, officially started moving employees in this morning.
