YONKERS NY (June 2025) — Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano joined with senior executives from Extell Development Company on June 18 for a ribbon-cutting ceremony for Hudson Piers, signifying the official grand opening of Extell’s new luxury, multi-phase development.
Mayor Spano stated, “Hudson Piers is one of the most transformative developments this city has seen and, when fully complete, will be a crowning jewel of along our water’s edge. Luxury amenities coupled with an unmatched location highlights the project’s mission to bring more families, businesses, and jobs to Yonkers — fulfilling the city’s truest potential. Welcome to Yonkers!”
“Under Mayor Mike Spano, Yonkers has been recognized as the fastest growing big city in New York State, and we are proud to be a part of the incredible redevelopment of that with the grand opening of Hudson Piers, which is bringing a new standard of luxury living to Yonkers. We’ve had a clear vision of what this waterfront site could be, and it’s been incredibly gratifying to see it come to fruition,” said Moshe Botnick, SVP of Development for Extell Development Company.
Hudson Piers signifies the final and largest piece of the Downtown Waterfront Revitalization in Yonkers which will provide the general public access to the wonderful Yonkers riverfront. Situated on over 20 acres along the Downtown Yonkers waterfront, once complete, development will bring more than 1,100 luxury apartments, exciting retail, waterfront amenities and a new riverfront esplanade along a prime waterfront location with beautiful views of the Hudson River across to the Palisades.
Hudson Piers builds on the remarkable renaissance underway in Yonkers under the administration of Mayor Spano which has seen more than $4 billion in private investment in new projects with over 9,100 multifamily units planned, completed, under construction and approved for development. This coincides with a remarkable expansion of the film industry in Yonkers and the renovation of Empire City Casino which is widely expected to win on a NYS gaming license and bring 5,000+ news jobs to Yonkers.
