Maybe taking those towers in the park and replacing them with more parks in the tower could work to preserve some green space, while providing additional density and dynamism down at street level.
There are smaller versions of the Hudson Yards in the city that we don't really talk about much because they are nowhere near the scale of this one. Then on the other hand, there is the MASSIVE Sunnyside Yard development that will take decades to build out, and they are nowhere near even beginning movement on that. As far as Manhattan goes, there is still the Con Ed site to be built out. There are rezonings that will consists of multiple developments. The (re)rises of East Midtown is really just beginning. The Penn Station redevelopment district will kick off eventually. The City will constantly evolve and adapt. And it has to if it is to stay healthy.
