I think it will be bulkier. I'm still interested in who exactly is going to design this tower. My money is on either SOM or KPF, and you can throw in BIG as well. But it wouldn't surprise me if they went another way.

All the more reason this building has outlived its usefulness on this site.




One more thing I forgot to mention earlier...

The headquarters will house 15,000 of the bank’s employees and could be between 70 and 75 stories, depending on how wide its footprint is, said a person with knowledge of the company’s plans.

That would be more than most of the new office towers. 30 Hudson has 68 floors not counting the top mechanical and One Vanderbilt has 58 floors.
