While the building is still under construction, a real estate agent got to tour a full-floor condo for sale. I had not realized how thick the east and west walls would be.

Was there no chance of having more of the eastern & western walls pierced by windows? They're few in number and not floor to ceiling, to boot.

^ The "prized" views are to the north and south. More north than south. But that's what drives these supertall condos on 57th. Everything else is extra. And besides, I love that east/west facade. We get plenty of glass with the other towers.

For such a flashy building I expected better interiors and floor plans. The elevators and stairs being smack in the middle really chop up the unit in an awkward way. Yeah I'll keep looking. :haha: |
I don't think it's too much to ask that people can come here and just look at skyscrapers without getting into too much political ideology.

Agreed.

Yikes, it appears they're still replacing crown panels on that 6th level down.

Not sure if this was posted here yet, but in this video this guy tours a full floor unit on the 43rd floor:
Edit: It's like 4 posts up |
So what's the highest occupied height of this building? Is it like around 1200 or does it go higher?
|
Only 1,134 ft according to CTBUH.

Not that anybody should be out, but if you are, stay away from Steinway. Very windy out, and I don't think they've repaired it.

Like watching Days of our Lives...
In December 2020, JDS sued HVAC contractor Copper II, and also sued the contractor's insurer Talisman Casualty for over $11.7 million. In its lawsuit, the developers claimed that Copper II had delayed its installation of the HVAC system, leading them to warn the contractor in November 2018. JDS also claimed that that, due to improper installation of the HVAC system, ten stories sustained water damage during July 2019.[141]
copied and pasted from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/111_West_57th_Street See section labeled 'other lawsuits'... Would this be what is possibly contributing to what seems to be taking so long? Has Stefano come back from the grave to help drag this story plot line out a bit more? Will Marlena come to our rescue? |

Ive always wondered how this building would handle an airplane running into it by accident. Even a Cessna hitting the top would do some serious damage. Like the 2006 Bellaire Apartments. A small airplane strike would halfway up it seems would slice the building right in two.

The PSI of the structure is quite strong. And I believe even stronger for 432 Park. Short of an Airbus or 737/747... would take quite a lot to bring this down. Damage...sure. A rich fella having his last momements as he sees the plane, and promptly enjoys his last moments with his dominatrix... that's about it.
Would take a lot to slice it like a chef slices celery. This structure on a side note looks like it would be a nightmare if the fire suppression failed on the top 10 floors and the top 10 floors are on fire. Helicopter maybe? |

I would learn to rappel and keep a full kit near the bathrooms with the small lot line windows. Cut through the glass with a tool and rappel down safe from fire. There's almost no windows in the shear walls. |
Do they have this airplane crash in mind??? It seems like they don’t think about it when they built the twin towers tho... :uhh:

Oh wow. That is so bad... :(

I remember stumbling upon that thread a few years ago. The consensus was that an airliner would bounce off somehow, and that the carnage would be mostly in the plaza & streets below.
Of course, industry professionals or not, few knew the tower's perimeter columns were only connected together by four bolts at that height, and equally few truthers seem to accept it today. All the plane has to do, was defeat those bolts... Is Airliners.net no longer used by pilots? Last time I was on there was the hundreds of pages discussing the Malaysian 772 that went missing. |

It still has some but it is a shell of its former self. In the 2000's it was the go to place to discuss Aviation. But in 07 it was bought out by a company, one of the things they did was make it free again. For a wile the forms had a small fee to make an account just to keep the discussion quality as high as possible. This as well as a bunch of other factors caused the forums to decline to where they are no longer the best forum. r/flying has a lot of high quality discussion, and APC which to be fair was fairly active before airlines.net decline. But is grown a lot since then but it is VARY toxic. And do you have a link to the info about the WTC bolts? I have not heard that before and that is interesting. |

is the crown essentially finished? it doesn't look so elegant with all the cross bracing showing through, although I suppose it provides a certain high-tech touch... still looks like there are some pieces missing....

I know developers will be following the slightest change in the market.
