Neither 432 Park nor CPT are extraordinary towers. I've not heard any member of the architecture community and few average joes who think they are. Both are inferior to the top residential towers going up right now. I would say One Vanderbilt is a superior tower to both as well, albeit it commercial. Of course, the developer will do what they want on this one, but it's very reasonable to hope for design improvements. It's not Nimbyism or jealousy.
