Pictures from street level, less than 300 feet away will capture without a doubt the best angles of the skyscraper. That shot was dope. The rising of this building is so slow to notice any progress you have to look back months. The only way we will know this is still rising is when it reaches the height of the last setback. I see cladding has a good pace it may reach the top before the tower tops out.
What I noticed is that the scaffolding on which the cantilever rest has not been removed and that blank wall is not claded yet

Awful from every angle, constantly competing with 432 Park for ugliest supertall in the world.

Craptitecture that does nothing but dilute the once-great NYC skyline and fill the developers pockets.

I'm reserving judgement until I see it completed. From what we've seen the facade (without the wrapping) is beautiful and the overall shape is not terrible

Speaking too early I think :tup:

You must be afraid of the scaaary shadows too

In my latest video as seen from Rockaway: BY QUEENSNY121:

Someone can tell me at when time cpt will surpass the tip of the empire state building???

It looks like they've topped out the cantilever portion.

The views from here are insane. The ESB, and its spire, are below the horizon! :slob:

^ Looking down on the ESB would take some getting used to.

Inside America’s soon-to-be tallest condo building on Billionaires’ Row

king-size bed overlooks Manhattan through wall-to-wall glass; polished stone and gold accent a grand lobby entrance; and private cabanas line the outdoor swimming pool. Such are the opulent flourishes at Central Park Tower, which will be the tallest residential skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere when it tops out this summer.

Affluent buyers and interested gawkers will get the first public glimpse at exactly what it costs to live in the 131-story glass tower when developers put the first public listings up on Tuesday, Mansion Global has exclusively learned. The seven units run the gamut from a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment asking $6.9 million to a full-floor aerie on the 112th floor asking $63 million.

Quote:

Developer Extell launched sales in the building in October and these will be the first batch of publicly listed units.

The priciest of the seven listings spans over 7,000 square feet with five bedrooms and five bathrooms. Crude floor plans in the building’s offering plan show a full-floor unit anchored by a grand salon big enough for 80 parked cars. It wraps around to a separate library on one side and a kitchen and family room on the other.

Quote:

Other units to hit the market next week include a $33 million four-bedroom apartment on the 81st floor and a $20.5 million corner unit on the 54th floor with three bedrooms and views over Central Park, according to the developer.

The $63 million condo to hit the market on Tuesday is only one of more than a dozen such full-floor units presumably with a similar price tags. And while it’s the most expensive publicly listed apartment, the condo is far from the most lavish offering in the 179-unit building.

Several apartments with seven or more bedrooms will start at $100 million, according to the developer. That includes a couple of duplexes and the building’s crown jewel, a colossal triplex penthouse with its own “ballroom” and an enormous outdoor terrace floating above the city on the 131st floor, according to the latest offering plan filed with the New York City Department of Finance.
