1. This proposal is only good news if it doesn't interfere with Spire sales. Everyone is excited about getting both, but if they're competing for a limited pool of buyers, we could end up with neither.

2. Mandarin Oriental, which is just as prestigious of a hotel brand, can't seem to get off the ground with their tower. Why should this?


Really guys, I wish this hadn't been announced until the Spire was fully financed. It just creates more overhang in the market, and potentially pulls people away from lower-floor units in the Spire (which need to be sold) to higher-floor units in this tower.
Let me guess, you're from New York?
