This buildings is just awesome! I had a feeling this would eventually break 1,400'. Take that 432 PA! :haha:
Top 10 future tallest: 1. 1WTC: 1,776ft / 541m 2. Nordstrom: 1,775ft / 541m 3. One Vanderbilt: 1,514ft / 461m 4. 111 West 57th Street: 1,421ft / 433m 5. 432 Park Avenue: 1,397ft / 426m 6. 125 Greenwich Street: 1,356ft / 413m 7. 2WTC: 1,349ft / 411m 8. 30 Hudson Yards: 1,287ft / 392m 9. ESB: 1,250ft / 381m 10. Hudson Spire: 1,200ft+ / 366m+ Crazy times! The skyline is becoming immensely tall. |
This project has been nothing but good news ... first it was a lame box, barely 200m / 656ft tall:

It took its skyscraper steroids like a good tower and sprouted. Then it ran nonstop for days, and became a toothpick. :cheers:

Yeah, I'll take 1421 ft.
And 432 Park better enjoy its moment of glory. It won't be king of Midtown for long, not with 111 W57 and 225 W57 on their way. |
If/when all of these projects come to fruition, the Empire State Building will be the NINTH tallest building in New York.
Think about that for a minute. |
I hope they release these damn updated renderings soon

I think the detailed renders will blow us away, firmly placing this one in my mind on the level of the Tower Verre.

That crown is going to be glorious. http://www.pbase.com/nyguy/image/158739522/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/nyguy/image/155785274/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/nyguy/image/158295155/original.jpg |
I really like the bronze art deco motif. It's similar to the one atop One 57, though will probably stand out more depending on how the crown refracts sunlight and how it is lit at night.

This and the Chrysler building will have the most beautiful tops in Manhattan IMHO. Just plain classy!

Have they lit the crown of One57 yet? Curious to see what it looks like. Tried looking for the One57 page but looks like it's been removed. |

Yes. I want to see what they have planned for the 360 10th Ave site, as well as the tower in Brooklyn, another development from JDS.[/QUOTE]
Me too. Brooklyn needs a signature tower imo:) |
