One Manhattan West is one of five buildings developed by Brookfield Property Partners and QIA for the Manhattan West project. Designed and engineered by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill,{{Cite web|last=Bifulco|first=Agnese|date=May 10, 2021|title=SOM Skidmore Owings & Merrill Manhattan West renovates Far West Side in New York |url=https://www.floornature.com/som-skidmore-owings-merrill-manhattan-west-renovates-far-wes-16599/|website=Floornature}} the building broke ground in 2015.
The structural system of the tower is composed of a central reinforced concrete core and a perimeter steel moment frame. Part of the tower overhangs the below ground train tracks leading into Penn Station. In order to avoid the tracks, the perimeter columns on the south, north, and east sides do not come down to ground level, but are transferred to the core above the building's lobby.{{cite journal | author1=Charles Besjak |author2=Preetam Biswas |author3=Georgi I.

The 67-story, 2.1 million square-foot structure topped out in August 2018 and was completed in 2019.
