This project has had three distinct versions. That original with the three rounded towers never felt like a serious proposal. A local developer with no high-rise experience got the site entitled for the towers and eventually sold the site to McCourt Global with a different three tower proposal. McCourt Global eventually sold the site to to WeWork. WeWork had huge plans for the site including their residential WeLive concept before their infamous melt down. The WeCompany held on to the site during their melt down and brought on Lincoln and Kairoi as developers. Last I checked, the WeCompany's NYC address was still listed as the owner of the site.
