But it won’t relate as well to its neighbor across the street. That’s a really iconic and almost monumental location in the city.
I fully understand the economic imperatives here (better than the majority here, I’m sure, for reasons that I will keep silent about), but it’s still a shame. In a perfect world, whatever they intend to build would replace something other than 270 Park (there are lots of nearby buildings with almost no merits whatsoever). But unfortunately that is not how the real estate economy works.
