I agree, Lion.

I am very excited about this extraordinary icon. Praise the Lord (Foster, that is)!

I cannot wait for this extraordinary icon to rise. I'm also very excited for the redesign and widening of the Park Avenue medians. Although this is not necessarily the final plan, it looks amazing and largely replicates the concept for the original medians.

Fabulous news for the anchor of our next icon….

From the FT:
May 27, 2025
https://www.ft.com/content/d0f4e991-...4-eaf7bfd5c474

Citadel Securities profits jump 70% on surge in trading revenues

Similar story from Investing.com:

Quote:
Citadel Securities, a high-speed trading firm, has seen a significant rise in profits in the first quarter of 2025, with a nearly 70 per cent increase to $1.7bn, according to a report by the Financial Times on Tuesday. This success is largely attributed to a surge in volatility across financial markets following the inauguration of Donald Trump.

That's one way of putting it. Reminds me of the wartime headline "Arms Industry Makes Killing on Wall Street."

This tower is going to be EXTRAORDINARY! Central Park Tower's reign as the tallest in NY will be ephemeral.

I think 437 Madison is gonna get redeveloped. They have a bunch of vacancies, and appear to have little interest in filling them. Now the retail is gone. This would be a full-block development site on one of the best blocks of Madison, close enough to Grand Central and yet close enough to the Plaza District.

By the way, it's more than likely that the top of this building will get the same lighting treatment as 270 Park Avenue. If 425 Park had a few extra hundred feet, it would be in the conversation too.

Timeframe is long, hopefully they can speed things up a bit.

I wonder if 1,600' is approximate or it got a height bump.

If things keep going this way, we'll only be missing one... but I'm not sure that one (the 175 PA) has great odds. Still, it's really great to see progress.

That frame really showcases how MASSIVE this building is going to appear from the East in Queens and the West in New Jersey.

250 feet taller to the roof than the Twin Towers for Midtown is really crazy.
