I don't get the reduction in the FAR and where did it go? No way would Related or any developer for that matter, forego any buildable space voluntarily.
It was clear to me, but I've forgotten for the moment. I'll get back to you when it comes back...
Next week, New York City’s Industrial Development Agency, a unit of the city Economic Development Corp., will vote on a $76.5 million property-tax exemption for One Hudson Yards, a redesign of a 49-story tower that Hudson Yards developer Related Cos. purchased from Extell Development Co.
Under terms of the exemption, New York-based Related and a partner will receive a 25 percent to 35 percent break on its real estate taxes for 15 years, said Joanna Rose, a Related spokeswoman. The remainder will go to cover bond payments.

Nothing is ever attractive enough for tenants. That's why it's always work to land them.

Yes 50s/60s Mies era? Maybe even older, can't figure out what building it reminds me of.
I don't have a tremendously strong opinion about the aesthetics of these buildings (450 W 33rd looks fine to me), but I do like the "classic" look of the current proposal.
I really don't like how people appreciate the bland box architecture. I respect their opinion, but it really bugs me. They're wasted opportunities for something grand, at least with trademark New York setbacks. Same thing with 432, I don't like it. I really hope this isn't the final proposal, as I feel like this 70s tower does not fit well with the two main modern towers. And that's my rant.
What a dismal redesign - I was so excited for that beautiful diagonal bracing! The new building is so busy and distracted and, worst of all, a box. Total regression.

No one said that was a finalized design.

^ Those are placeholders as well, though the current concept evolved from that.

Compared to Vornado's, which was very similar...

^ Exactly, which is why we should just let the architects do their jobs and wait for final designs before we panic.
If you look at this Rendering you can see that 1 Hudson BLVD's base is the same as the one presented in the model. i thin there trying to express the same building but in the model they just didn't add the curved crown.

I'm not sure the crown will be as depicted in the rendering or as shown on the model. It could be neither when all is said and done.
