Hey if I had that amount of money I would buy a condo like this.

austin- Thank you. I plan to add many more tall art deco's. I'm just a big box fan.

Alek- Thank you. The prices are about right. I'm sure in real life they'd be more expensive being everything you said (which is true), but I didn't want to get too insane with the prices.

I took some figures from Trump World Tower to get an estimate for prices:

-In TWT, on the top floor, there are 4 penthouses worth $14 million each.
-When you take into account that all the penthouses in the Vornado Building are 1 floor units, I just did a little multiplication. If anything they are cheap (Vornado's penthouses) for their size and location.

Here is a view from the top Penthouse:

Not a bad view to wake up to.

Thank you Patrick. So do I. Edges off are good for skyline shots, but other than that....

I finished 1616 Broadway, but I'm going to post an update of it tomorrow. Here are just some more billboards I made in Hutchinson Square.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This particular one is an electronic screen. In addition to Scotia Bank, 9 other companies advertise in the cycle.

Enjoy!

Austin55 · #**369** Posted **Dec 5, 2007, 12:10 AM**

Those are so cool. the shape of the buildings really makes the bill boards stand out. Reminds me of when we went to NY

We stayed in a hotel right on the square. To bad we never made it farther out,to the twins

I only remember them looming on the skyline every where we went

Ive had some bad timing on my many trips. we missed 9/11 by months and we were actaully in the air on the way to D.C. we thee U.S. Invaded Iraq.
So that was a bit oftopic,but ok

hey,is does Echo theater have anything to do with the Echo company in SF?

Aleks · #**371** Posted **Dec 5, 2007, 2:21 AM**

Anyways, it's awesome, all you need are people walking around the streets.

Thank you austin.

Thank you Alek.

I cannot stand theater either, nor RENT for the matter. I just put it up there because it's a popular musical.

1616 Broadway: was completed in 1973 in part to promote the development of Hutchinson Square. The building is home to the Panasonic Theater, which is located at the West base of the building. Vh1 has studios in the East side of the base. Sinage that comes with the buildng includes and electronic vh1 sign that plays music videos, music tickers, and a Verizon Billboard. There is a patio ontop of the base which is utilized by vh1, for when bands come to play. The main tenant that occupies the tower itself, is AXA Equitable.

The base of 1616 Broadway:

The design concept of the building was inspired by 1 Astor Plaza.

Looking down Broadway from Monument Square:

Enjoy guys!

Austin55 · #**377** Posted **Dec 5, 2007, 10:32 PM**

awesome! I love the ads,very coo. you dont have to update every day you know

Aleks · #**378** Posted **Dec 5, 2007, 11:42 PM**

Yeah, very nice. I agree, you don't have t but if you want to it's okay. Adding a lot of detail is not only good for making a city look real but it also takes time so people don't get bored and see something diff. every time they check a city out.

Anyways, the base of 1616 Broadway is really nice and creative but the tower doesn't seem to go with the colors of the base. Well only the black because the turquoise look good.

Dac150 · #**379** Posted **Dec 6, 2007, 2:43 AM**

austin- Thank you! It's okay, I like like doing it.

Alek- Thank you! Adding the detail is fun, especially for this area. The colors on the bottom (if your talking about the vh1 screen) change, do to it being and electronic screen. It suppose to look wacky and retro to represent the time from when it was built.
