More One Penn Plaza gorgeousness! (All photos mine)

Sitting on that same street corner for 46 years must have gotten pretty boring, so One Penn Plaza decided to do something about it one beautiful spring day in 2016.
Visiting the neighbors can be fun, here's One Penn at Rockefeller Center:

Keeping watch over Times Square:

And after a long day of fun, it was time to come home. Observe One Penn Plaza in its natural habitat- the lobby!

Yeah, looks like One Penn is losing those silver pinstripes. I'm not sure how I feel about that. In any case, before I do another One Penn cosplay, I'll have to see how that makeover turns out. In the meantime I'm tackling 277 Park Avenue, and 270. I may add a black translucent face veil or blindfold to 270, in reference to its shroud. That and a pair of wings.

I'm glad they are refacading the whole thing. One Penn certainly looks good as is.

Interesting. It definitely looks like One Penn is losing those pinstripes.

Hadn't noticed the new lighting. I'll have to check it out.

It's obviously unfinished, but it's looking pretty cool! I hope they fix those neon "1" signs, there are so many dark spots.
I wonder if the new lights will change color or something cool like that?

It will be interesting to see how it looks when it's all done!

^Now that is damn cool! I'm guessing these lights are animated too?
