It would be nice to see that entire low-rent block razed...I wonder if COVID will factor into that at all...

JMKeynes · #**102** Posted **Jul 22, 2020, 12:13 PM**

I desperately want to see 579 Fifth and the hideous building next to it (i.e., "NY Gifts") razed ASAP.

The Philipines Airlines building and the Smilers "Deli" are also horrible.

Crawford · #**103** Posted **Jul 22, 2020, 12:23 PM**

Yeah, those blocks are horrible. Demolish and redevelop with new towers, please!

That idiot should be wearing a mask.

I dislike much of what you say, but I have to admit that was well crafted.

I'm not as conservative as you think. I'm actually a fiscally-conservative Democrat (i.e., I can't stand AOC, Warren, Sanders, et al.).

Ok, well let's not get into politics please.

Oh come on when has politics ever ruined a forum???

Anyways, depending on who owns the building and the duration of the pandemic yes, we could see these little eyesores being bought out. RE prices are crashing and there is a lot of uncertainty as to how long a recovery may take. Plus, small tenets are not going to be able to pay the bills if things keep going the way they are...

This was (and may still be) a design for this site. I'd like to see more.

If you knew, they'd have to kill you.

Maybe a local Mossad office.

Drcastro · #**116** Posted **Oct 2, 2020, 5:44 PM**

Jewelry studio?

This site is enormous and demands a landmark supertall, hopefully by a starchitect. And yeah, I could see the site growing now that the adjacent site is for sale.

Extell better hit a home run here.
