This tower sure looks amazing. I'm interested to see how it'll fare in the rendering vs. reality test. DS+R does good work though.
|
What about elevator or escalator to be installed? Those people who can't be walking the stairs. It will hurt the legs.
|
Oh my. This city never stops getting better!

Awesome. It sort of has that futuristic look that Mid Century architecture had. Even the furniture looks like it should be sitting on shag carpet.
|
^ tex exactly. besides, nyc could really use something just straight up off the wall throwback 70s era shag rug wacky tacky like this. why not?!
now if only nyu would follow suit and put up something worthwhile or with even an ounce of fun/creative spark next time instead of those cheap soviet era slab dorms. |
Simply perfect. Incredible design, a work of art.

My thought exactly. With all the fantastic architecture being created by Columbia and Cooper Union and Cornell, NYU should be horribly embarrassed with the schlock they have dumped all over downtown. Even Fordham, The New School and City College are putting up some nice buildings. I hate NYU. |
Here is a new rendering. Looks much less interesting than before, unless this is a different building being shown

I don't like the DS+R proposal as much as the former UN Studio proposal for the Manhattanville Business School:

Yes, there really needs to be. I drove by today and this site is absolutely humming with activity. I love the architecture here. DSR just kills it every time out.
