It's ours and we'll enjoy this beautiful tower. :P This tower anchors the Central Park skyline in a significant way. I recall years back watching the Time Warner center being built. Now those twin towers anchor Columbus Circle in a delightful way (but I wish those towers were taller) and don't get me started with the height of the nearby Hearst tower (too short for such a nice design with no party hat). :runaway: |

This sounds like good news, and hopefully will mean that construction pace will pick up significantly, as it has been speculated here that the current snails pace is the result of financing and market issues...

I've said this before in countless other construction threads here on SSP.
Everyone's entitled to their opinion and their comments are always appreciated. I also have an opinion that I will stand firm with. Like other towers, including the NY Times Building, 432 Park, One Vanderbilt, 425 Park, 53W53, etc., I really do like these designs. Now, the Nordstrom Tower (Central Park Tower), is one of my clear favs. Personally, I loved the original design with the spire. But without the spire, I still hold firm with my opinion that this building is going to look amazing. I am still a fan of modern, classic and gothic architecture. :tup: |

WTF 131 stories ?????
|
Unless they are counting the 7 floors of the retail as equivalent to 14 based on what the ceiling heights will be for the residential? :???: Or mechanical floors? On the Extell site, it does say "over" 1550 ft, so idk what "over" means. Maybe there is something that we don't know...
This is Barnett after all. Could be why he is so reluctant to release final figures. I mean, ideally, it would be nice to raise the roof height in the absence of a spire AND at the same time raise the units. Which I think he is doing in the midst of a slowing ultra luxury sector. Maybe this rendering is really 1600-1650 ft? IDK, it seems like such a nitpick issue in regards to +50 ft or so. I guess you could scale it using "mm" based on 220 CPS/One57's height.

Normally, I could care less about another department store, but this one I might actually look forward to shopping at. ;)
Speaking of 131 floors:I approve this message. :D |

Say what you will about the tower's design (I for one think it's just fine), but Gary's taste in ties borders on criminal.

I know some of you guys are disappointed, but I gotta say I really like the design. NYC is amazing.
