The one story retail structure is a product of zoning. In order to achieve the high density of 1 Penn Plaza, the other areas of the lot was artificially reduced in intensity. Additionally, New York's zoning code also offers density bonuses for private plazas and open spaces. It sounds good in theory but the unintended consequence is this shit.
I wish there was minimum height limits and building coverages to prevent crap like that from ever being built again.
