Wow. That is quite the statement. Love it or hate it, it's just interesting and what a spectacular street. I love the view down 57th Street.

Wow, watching that crane operate and precisely place those sections of glass panels into place looks challenging with the winds up there!
What I'd like to know is how does the crane operator know which piece to place at which section.
The guys standing on the ledge looks frightening!
One wrong step and it's over for them.
Its crazy. The amount of finesse that they have, and the precise, eagle eye when it comes to moving items in place. Couple of inches off, and that's a near miss or a injury. We don't want those OSHA auditors delaying this project.
These guys deserve the 300k + salary a year plus overtime. Not many could do what they do.
Looks like a fun water slide. Might be worth to ride it down from the roof in the winter when its icy. Must be a thrill for that brief moment, until you violently land on the street.

That's what the little slats on the roof are for, to keep ice and snow in place so it can melt gradually. And there must be a gutter that we just can't see here.
Hopefully there are gutters over the balconies too so they don't flood, but they still must get pretty snowy and will flood anyway. Come to think of it, this doesn't seem like a very good design for a temperate climate.
