There's going to be a lot of towers rising in this area, so they better get use to the construction. We still have Phase II of HY yet to start.

Yep, then there's also East Midtown and a few scattered big ones.

And they won’t be happy that the Adjaye proposal doesn’t include affordable housing. The site is given a max 24 FAR, though no more than 12 can be residential. However, there is no requirement or preference for housing on this site, nor should there be.

The design as presented is an early version, presented for the RFP. If selected, I’m sure there would be more refinement.

I would like the crown to have a more distinctive touch, like the base.







The design also shows that you can have multiple terraces without setbacks.

That grey box is being incorporated into the design yes?
Also it's interesting to look at the spiral and the rest of HY from the ground, see them and know how tall they are while at the same time know they'll be dwarfed by what's going to be built here.
