Yes, probably after all the time and money they put into this building, they finally just threw up their hands and said “I don’t care!” all of a sudden.

Maybe they care after all. ;)

The missing cladding was installed? Hard to see from those pics

It was! Didn't see any missing panels on CPT :D

Those shots with the angled edge lit up by the sun are awesome! I wish that feature was a little more prominent when it isn’t lit up this way.

^ Seeing such a tall building at the end of the street is awesome too. I will be in NYC this fall to witness it in person!

Both CPT and 30 Hudson have that feature.

This thing is gorgeous, i don't care about the hate it gets, i think its amazing. If it was a tad wider that'd be cool but its all good

I think it will look really nice at night, but is lacking in any interesting details in daytime, at least from a distance.

I have also made this remark more than once. The design lacks interesting contrasts during the daytime, but when the crown and different windows light up at night, the heterogeneous lighting pattern provides some much-needed contrast.
