NEW YORK | Independence Plaza Tower (Tribeca) | 940 FT | FLOORS

Question is, how much say do they have?

If they just delay the project but don't have the power to cancel / downsize it that's alright I guess as long as it can get built.

If they make a big enough stink it could influence their council member

these richy rich retiree whiners just like to complain or don't want their views blocked.

boo hoo.

still, it doesnt have to be so eggs in one basket tall.

they could build a smaller tower and build up the low rise sections of this already questionable/dystopian highrise barbican development.

that would throw a lot more shade around and block a lot more people's views, so they better be careful what they wish for.

They should be allowed to build what they are allowed to build. It's New York Friggin City. If they are that adverse to tall buildings, they shouldn't be living anywhere near to where they are. I have no sympathy nor tolerance for such selfishness. No more appeasement to whiners, who btw would still be whining if this proposal were at half its height. Look at what's going on at 250 Water Street.

After what happened at 250 Water Street I'm a bit worried.

Sad this is happening in NYC of all places.
