This is being designed by Sir Norman Foster, so should be pretty cool architecturally.

It's only the second tallest planned hospital building in this neighborhood. Lenox Hill plans an even taller hospital tower, though the NIMBYs will fight it.

Also, that news article is silly typical NIMBYism. Tower is as-of-right, the NIMBYs can't do anything. The article implies the tower is eliminating 300 units of housing, which is false. It's replacing an empty medical dorm, which has already been replaced, so isn't removing any units of housing. And those housing units were never available to the public anyways.
