Kinda crazy to see a supertall go up and it's essentially unnoticable on the overall skyline.

It is, though this angle is a little misleading. Both this one and 53w53 are about 45 ft taller than One57.
But yeah, in Midtown both are background towers.

I should also point out that the zoning envelope for this site calls for a 1,130 ft tower, though plans are currently for 1,050 ft (1,051 in the drawings). They have the flexibility to build the higher version because that's the version being considered, though they are saying it won't be that tall.
The next 5 years is going to be EPIC in NYC as far as construction goes, with skyscrapers and major developments in every borough (skyscrapers, casinos, transit terminals, etc.)
