^ Yeah, and it helps to show that Midtown still has that luster. With everything that's going on Downtown (there have been a lot of large signings there lately), and on the west side (also hot), the heart of Midtown has had a drought of new office construction (not counting smaller "boutique" buildings like 7 Bryant Park, and BofA's tower). For all it's vast inventory, the luster has slowly been fading away because of the lack of new, state of the are office towers being built there. Between this, and 425 Park (another smaller tower), some light will begin to shine there again. They need to get that rezoning passed to further it though. New York can be a classic, great city, and yet new, and state of the art at the same time.

The bank would also install a major flagship bank branch.

“It would include branding and signage and will really be somewhat dramatic,” said one source.

If they're thinking of a dramatic space opposite Grand Central (as shown in the mockup), they have to do it right...signage is ok, but you don't want to try and upstage Grand Central.
