Hate the idea of wasting half the block with a single floor. Nothing here should be less than five, but at least match the height of the building you're abutting.
Ground floor in general looks hostile to pedestrians and the neighborhood despite being largely retail.
Tower portion itself looks fine, I guess, but as usual I don't understand the enthusiasm on this forum.
Really hope this thing isn't built as currently designed.
I'm so happy they dropped the public space. I would otherwise be for it, but in order for it to be successful it needed to be on the ground floor away from residents and heavily monitored. I think if the gallery and artist space had remained this building would have had really fierce pushback from Fitler Sq residents as well as the Murano.
Amazing how this can be proposed here, and then, 2301 Walnut a few blocks away on a significantly more prestigious street is being proposed like that....This shoots down any argument that 2301 is at all appropriately sized and designed.
“There will be very little construction for the next two years,” Zuritsky said. “Very, very few starts, if any, of any kind of scale. That’s what I predict.”
The article also points to the indefinitely-delayed Durst tower at Penn's Landing and CVS tower at 19th and Chestnut.

Rates will start to normalize in the 6-12 months. Maybe then.
