Those are amazing. Love the boom going on.

I like it. Bring it on!
Wouldn't mind adding a few hundred feet, though. A new tallest would be even better. |
Count the Supertalls:

Despite all the doom and gloom I'm trying to remain optimistic about 175 Park and maybe if we're really lucky 350 Park and 2WTC.
Things will probably cool down quite a bit until the next cycle though. Happy 2024 :cheers: Quote:

As far as pointless superlatives go, I'm still holding out hope we'll soon reach the 30+ supertalls mark. We're actually pretty close, we just need a couple of stalled towers to resume and some of the proposals to start up.

That NYT article is bizarre. I think the author should follow SSP, NY YIMBY, The Real Deal, and other sites.
They should have written that article around 4-5 years ago, when a bunch of supertalls were finishing up, and there were almost no serious new proposals. But there has basically been no building boom activity for years. In the short term, we're actually much more likely to be on the cusp of a building boom. We're certainly due, given all the supertalls in planning. |

Right, it was purely someone's speculation, but thought I'd share anyway. Despite much empty office space most of it is old space undesirable to companies anyway. I'm guessing they didn't take that into account. |

That article was sort of accurate, as far as new office space goes. There won't be major new office space coming online in the next few years. But as far as new building construction goes? That's something different. We already know that new skyscrapers will be rising. The skyscrapers that have been under construction are nearing completion. As anyone knows, that will only be followed by more construction. In other words, the perceived lack of new building is exactly why the new skyscrapers are on the way. Given the length of time it takes to get a skyscraper built, there was always going to be a little "cool off" period until the next giants can make their appearance. But that's far removed from the "end". |

These buildings should disgust anyone who isn’t a multibillionaire. Perfect examples of the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few while more and more struggle in poverty. . But hey, generally bland buildings with no redeeming architectural features other than extreme height, so it’s all good, right?

Cry about it ig?

Just for the record;
350 Park: 1600 ft! :cheers: Plans for Park Avenue office building unveiled |
Just a note, 15 Penn has gradually gotten smaller, and now includes a height cut. It remains to be seen what the final version will be.
