Azorim celebrates grand opening of Hudson 44 - Yonkers’ tallest residential building

Yonkers, NY On Tuesday January 13th, Azorim chairman Hershey Freidman and COO Jack Klein, together with local elected officials, marked the grand opening of Hudson 44. Now the tallest building in the city at 301 ft., Hudson 44 is a 27-story residential tower with views of the Hudson River from New York City to the south to the Tappan Zee Bridge in the north. Hudson 44 includes 250 units with a mix of studio, one bedroom, and two-bedroom residences and a full suite of amenities in downtown. Hudson 44 has reshaped the local skyline and is a major milestone in the borough’s continued growth.

Joining Freidman and Klein at the opening were deputy mayor Susan Gerry, city council president Lakisha Collins-Bellamy, city council members: John Rubbo, Deana Norman, Corazon Pineda-Isaac, Tasha Diaz, and Tim Hodges as well as Westchester County legislators James Nolan and Shanae Williams.

“The opening of 44 Hudson St. represents the continued transformation of Yonkers into a vibrant, modern city where people want to live, work, and invest,” said mayor Mike Spano. “This new luxury residential building strengthens our downtown, reimagines our skyline and brings new energy to the waterfront. We thank Azorim for its continued commitment to smart growth and investment in our Yonkers community.”

Collins-Bellamy said, “Hudson 44 has literally changed the skyline of Yonkers. As the tallest building in our city, it stands as a powerful symbol of progress, vision, and the continued evolution of our downtown. This milestone reflects the hard work, partnership, and forward-thinking investment that are helping Yonkers grow.”

Friedman said, “Hudson 44 is the first of our projects in the downtown Yonkers area. We believe that this tower will contribute to Yonkers’ growing vibrancy as a great place to live. We are grateful to mayor Spano and the city council for their continued support in bringing the building from conception to completion.”
