Not only is this tower extraordinary, but the rock walls and streams at the bottom thereof are magnificent. 383 Madison is also turning out spectacularly.

In another 5-10 years, that wall will eventually have enough greenery and "weathering" to look really nice! As it is now, it still looks somewhat unfinished

If you've been out and about, you already know about the smoky haze overtaking the city and the northeast...

We know that the top of the building has a graphic light show every night, but either I was not paying attention to or didn't realize that they have the ability to do light shows all the way up the surface of the tower on the columns, which have always been lit. i only noticed that from looking at the cam live. The lights move up and down the columns like tiny elevators.

NO spoilers here, but if you saw the new Spiderman movie, you got a good look at 270 Park (among other towers), especially if you saw it in 3D.








And it looks like we'll get good views again in the upcoming Avengers movie.







All help to giving increased visibililty to this tower outside of New York and skyscraper fandoms.
