I noticed that too. Beautiful and magnificent structure. The soft silver glow from the (morning?) light gives it a majestic and heavenly feel <3

From earlier this month...


Quote:
Since breaking ground in 2016, the super structure has reached the 73rd floor, which is the tower’s top office floor below the planned observatory deck. Construction of the observatory deck will begin later this month.
The observation deck is basically at the base of the crown, so it shouldn't be much.

That facade looks phenomenal next to Met Life building, I guess the early terracotta design was to blend with Grand Central but this lighter one is much better. The New King of Mid Town is emerging!

I think this view captures the best of what makes New York, from the lowrises, to the highrises, and supertall buildings...

Love the pics and the gist of the post. A city isn't just highrises but the blend that just makes it unique and captivating. New York is one of the best examples of a vibrant city with a pulse and feel. Just hope it doesn't get too suburbanized or generic but anyone who lived through the worst of New York from the 60's into the 90s and thinks today is horrible compared to those times...absolute nonsense.
