It looks like 1 Madison Avenue is on the cover of the latest issue of Popular Science. Looks like Verre is there too.

Could someone delete the completion date here and in the diagrams? 2010 is impossible.
|
Is this still an active proposal? Otherwise I will change the status to "stale-proposal".

You know, 12 years ago when I was looking at futuristic movies and these crazy looking buildings, I never thought it would come out of science fiction. Now, there are endless possibilities in an architect's crazy mind.
These buildings really do look nice. |

I feel like only so many 900+ footers can be approved in one city at one time amidst a fragile economic recovery. :rolleyes: :shrug:
|
^^ I don't think this one is going anywhere fast in this economy. The new building across (1 Madison Park, I think) is stuck in a huge legal battle.

:previous: I like your attitude....especially since I'll be going to school next to this tower's future location until around 2013 :tup:
|
by 2013 you guys in nyc could have something taller than burj khalifa either proposed or u/c if the economy stands up
|
^Unlikely. There's just no place where the zoning would support a building that big.
|
plus, as far as i know, the FAA won't allow anything over 2000 feet.
|
eh, i guess that is pushing it. There still is a lot of room for optimism though in the future regarding changes in zoning and upward development. That doesn't mean there's gonna be 2000 footers all around nyc in the future but there certainly is room for things to change, especially regarding concerns for a lack of space.
|
There are no news for long time now. That project has been proposed in 2008, and nothing happened. No news anymore (other than Tower Verre for example). I hope it still gets built!

When the project moves toward the 7 month approval process, we'll know if there is intent to move forward.
