What also makes NY particularly attractive to foreign investors is the weak dollar.

But more in regard to this tower, I was playing softball in Central Park a few days ago and not only will this be taller than C57, but it also has much less in front of it blocking views of the park. C57 has a few buildings which sit directly in front of it and sort of block some views on the lower floors. Those buildings aren't very tall, but between innings I tried to imagine where this tower would be and if I placed it right there isn't really anything at all in front of this. That could mean almost completely and utterly unobstructed views of the park from floor 10 or 15 up to the top.

Just a sort of fyi. Hard to imagine that C57 will be a decent lick taller than anything in the direct area, until this arrives probably 2 years behind C57.
