The block directly across from the Waldorf, containing two mid office buildings, should be redeveloped down the line.

there look to be two outstanding features, first of all the curved glass. i am getting manhattan west vibes and that would be a very good thing as the glass there is top shelf.

second and best of all for most people is the major improvement and expansion of the base plaza. the base on the first version of this tower was crap and the hanging boxes iteration wasn’t much better. it looks clean and terrific at the streetlevel base and so its a win for pedestrians.
Also, you don’t usually see bay windows on office towers in Manhattan.
