The east river is going to look fantastic once the skyline stretches to Long Island City and north of it. Between the Jersey gold coast and this, its gonna be a nice wall along both rivers.

* 388 Bridge St.: The Stahl Organization's skyscraper will usurp the Brooklyner as the borough's tallest residential building – at least until AvalonBay's project across the street at 100 Willoughby St. is constructed.
The 590-foot Bridge Street tower is topped out, and gleaming glass covered the facade of all but the bottom floors when we stopped by this week. The hum of construction machinery was evidence of contractors hard at work behind the construction fencing.

There will be 234 rental apartments and 144 condos in the 53-story building. There will be multiple temporary certificates of occupancy for different parts of the property, with the rental portion likely finished in January, Stahl co-president Gregg Wolpert told Eye on Real Estate. He thinks a rental office for the market-rate apartments will open by the end of October. So how pricey will they be?
“I can't talk about rents; we're finalizing them right now,” he said. Nor can he speak about the condo prices because the state Attorney General's office hasn't approved the offering plan.

There will be LED lighting to create a “crown” at the top of the building, with wind turbines providing the power to keep it glowing, Wolpert said.

“Not to knock AvalonBay – they're very good builders,” Wolpert countered. “But [100 Willoughby] won't be built to the same standards as our building. It shouldn't be. It's a rental.”
Stahl's tower was designed to be all-condo, with higher ceilings – including 11-foot ceilings in its penthouses – an upscale gym from Park Avenue called the Manhattan Athletic Club and a “luxury lobby,” he said.

I can envision seeing three big clusters of buildings eventually....downtown, midtown and Brooklyn.
