That’s all from the pre-certification step, before ULURP officially begins. Ine of the options was a hotel/residential tower that woukd have been a supertall. Extell also planned to spread a little on a smaller, existing property down the block (the site assemblage is most of the block). This never entered ULURP, and Extell got a partner for the site, which is what’s happening now.
