Construction is moving along smoothly on the Pendry Hotel, aka 4 Manhattan West. The reinforced concrete superstructure of the 21-story Midtown West development has risen past the halfway mark, and installation of its distinctive wavy façade has begun on the northern and western elevations. The mixed-use project, which is designed by Skidmore Owings & Merrill and developed by Brookfield Properties, is slated to offer 164 guest rooms and a selection of condominiums on its upper floors.

Façade work is underway at 12 East 48th Street on what will become a 161-room Hilton Grand Vacation Hotel. Located in Midtown East between Madison Avenue and Fifth Avenue, the reinforced concrete superstructure has already topped out and the curtain wall on the northern elevation is beginning to rise above the ground floor. Designed by Handel Architects, the bright metallic frames that surround the building's windows will form a subtly oscillating geometric pattern. Hidrock Realty is the developer of the project.

Fransisco Alvarez | Steve Sypa Catch up on all the Mets prospects in yesterday’s minor league action! *All results from games played on Saturday, August 24, 2019 Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (68-62) ROCHESTER 6, SYRACUSE 2 (BOX) Well, there goes that. Syracuse had a nine-game winning streak, but it come to an end thanks to some crummy pitching on the part of Ervin Santana and an offense that struggled against the assortment of pitchers that the Red Wings sent to the mound, including former Syracuse Met Ryan O’Rourke. 3B Arismendy Alcantara: 1-4 2B Sam Haggerty: 0-4, 3 K DH Dilson Herrera: 0-4, 3 K SS Danny Espinosa: 0-4, 2 K LF Gregor Blanco: 1-4, K RF Travis Taijeron: 1-3, R, BB 1B Jason Krizan: 1-4, RBI, K C Ali Sanchez: 0-2, R, BB CF Braxton Lee: 2-3, 2B RHP Ervin Santana: 4.1 IP, 10 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 3 BB, 2 K, L (3-4) RHP Nick Rumbelow: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K RHP Eric Hanhold: 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K LHP Donnie Hart: 0.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K, E (1) RHP Matt Blackham: 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (35-29/27-39) BINGHAMTON 4, NEW HAMPSHIRE 2 (BOX) Andres Gimenez hit a two-run homer in the first, his eighth of the year, to give Binghamton a quick 2-0 lead, but the Fisher Cats got the runs right back in the second. The game stayed tied 2-2 until the eighth, when Austin Bossart hit a double into center that drove in Edgardo Fermin and Patrick Mazeika. CF Quinn Brodey: 1-4, R, 2B, K SS Andres Gimenez: 1-4, R, HR (8), 2 RBI, K DH Patrick Mazeika: 0-2, R, BB, HBP C Austin Bossart: 1-4, 2B, 2 RBI, K 1B Jeremy Vasquez: 1-4, 2B, K 2B Luis Carpio: 0-4 3B Will Toffey: 0-0, HBP, SB (5) 3B David Thompson: 0-2, HBP RF Jacob Zanon: 0-4, K LF Edgardo Fermin: 1-2, R, BB LHP David Peterson: 5.1 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 4 K, W (3-1) RHP Ryder Ryan: 2.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 4 K, HBP RHP Adonis Uceta: 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 1 K, S (6) Advanced-A: St. Lucie Mets (32-34/35-28) JUPITER 5, ST. LUCIE 0 (BOX) Another day, another loss for St. Lucie. This time, they got shut out by Dustin Beggs and relievers Cason Sherrod and C.J. Carter. The team had plenty of opportunities to score, as they managed eight baserunners, but went 0-5 with runners in scoring position. A very good start by Tylor Megill was wasted in this loss as well. Since transitioning into starting, the right-hander has been hit or miss, but has racked up the strikeouts. LF-2B Blake Tiberi: 0-4 2B Jed Lowrie: 1-2 RF Jose Miguel Medina: 0-2, K DH Carlos Cortes: 2-4, 2B RF-LF Wagner Lagrange: 0-4, 3 K C Mitch Ghelfi: 1-4, K, SB 1B Matt Winaker: 1-3, BB, K 3B Cody Bohanek: 1-4, K, E (14) SS Manny Rodriguez: 0-3 CF Hansel Moreno: 0-3, E (7) RHP Tylor Megill: 5.0 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, L (3-4) RHP Carlos Hernandez: 2.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 K RHP Briam Campusano: 2.0 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K Low-A: Columbia Fireflies (24-42/27-34) ROME 4, COLUMBIA 3 (BOX) Chandler Avant gave Columbia the lead in the top of the fifth on a triple, and Chase Chambers drove in two more in the sixth, but Collin Holderman and Justin Lasko combined to implode in the sixth, coughing up the lead. 2B Nick Conti: 1-5, R, 2B, 2 K SS Ronny Mauricio: 1-3, R, BB, K 3B Mark Vientos: 1-3, K PR-3B Shervyen Newton: 0-1 1B Chase Chambers: 2-3, R, 2 RBI, HBP RF Guillermo Granadillo: 1-4 C Phil Capra: 0-3, BB, 3 K LF Chandler Avant: 2-4, 3B, RBI DH Walter Rasquin: 0-4, K CF Gerson Molina: 0-3, BB RHP Colin Holderman: 5.1 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 2 WP RHP Justin Lasko: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 1 K, L (3-2), BS (3) RHP Danny Hrbek: 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, HBP Short-A: Brooklyn Cyclones (37-29) CONNECTICUT 6, BROOKLYN 5 (BOX) This was a tough one. Brooklyn is in the playoff hunt and every win matters. After jumping out to an early 2-0 and then losing it, the Cyclones plated three runs in the fourth to retake the lead on a Jose Peroza homer. Connecticut then chipped away, scoring two in the eighth to make it 5-4, and then another two in the ninth to walk it off and win 6-5. DH Antoine Duplantis: 1-2, R, 2 BB SS Wilmer Reyes: 1-3, R, BB, SB (11) 2B Luke Ritter: 0-2, R, RBI, BB, SB (5) 1B Joe Genord: 0-3, R, 2 K, HBP 3B Jose Peroza: 1-4, R, HR (4), 3 RBI, K CF Jake Mangum: 0-1, BB LF Raul Beracierta: 0-2, 2 K LF-CF Ranfy Adon: 1-4 C Jake Ortega: 0-4, K RF Kennie Taylor: 1-4, 2B RHP Nathan Jones: 3.0 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 3 K RHP Corey Gaconi: 3.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K RHP Nelson Leon: 1.2 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 2 K, WP, H (2) RHP Matt Mullenbach: 1.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 0 K, WP, L (1-3), BS (2) Rookie: Kingsport Mets (32-32) KINGSPORT 9, BLUEFIELD 2 (BOX) Kingsport needed a win and man, did they get it. Scott Ota hit a solo homer in the second to give Kingsport the lead, but Andres German gave up a solo homer in the third. Francisco Alvarez hit a solo homer in the third to give the Mets the lead for a second time, and then things went crazy. Kingsport scored seven runs in the bottom of the sixth, all on home runs. Alvarez hit a second homer, Tanner Murphy hit a homer, and Christopher Pujols hit a grand slam. The Bluefield Blue Jays scored a second run after that offensive flurry, but in the end, it wouldn’t matter. 3B Brett Baty: 0-3, BB, K C Francisco Alvarez: 2-4, 2 R, 2 HR (3, 4), 2 RBI, PB (12) SS Jaylen Palmer: 1-4, R, 2 K DH Andres Regnault: 2-4, R RF Scott Ota: 1-3, 2 R, HR (6), RBI, BB, K 1B Cristopher Pujols: 2-4, R, HR (3), 4 RBI, K LF Cole Kleszcz: 0-2, R, BB, HBP CF Tanner Murphy: 1-4, R, HR (5), 2 RBI, 3 K 2B Gregory Guerrero: 0-4, 2 K, E (7) RHP Andres German: 6.0 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, W (3-1) LHP Nixon Silva: 1.0 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 2 K RHP Ramon Guzman: 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K RHP Reyson Santos: 0.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 1 K Rookie: GCL Mets (27-23) GCL METS 8, GCL CARDINALS 5 (BOX) CF Blaine McIntosh: 1-5, 2 R RF Kenedy Corona: 2-4, 2B, 2 RBI, BB, 2 K DH Zach Ashford: 1-4, 2 R, HR (2), 2 RBI, BB 1B Ryan Shinn: 1-4, 2B, K, HBP, SB (6) 3B Warren Saunders: 1-3, R, RBI, 2 BB LF Endy Rodriguez: 0-4, R, BB, 2 K C Matt O’Neill: 2-4, R, HR (1), RBI, BB, K C Juan Loyo: 0-0 SS William Lugo: 1-3, RBI, 2 BB, 2 E (17, 18) 2B Cesar Berbesi: 1-4, R, RBI, K RHP Josh Wolf: 2.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 4 K RHP Matthew Allan: 2.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, W (1-0) RHP Joshua Cornielly: 3.0 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 5 K, HBP, H (1) RHP Jace Beck: 2.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, S (2) Star of the Night Francisco Alvarez Goat of the Night Matt Mullenbach
