looks like this was a massing used to market the site before it was purchased by GSDNY and Klovern. 409 Park has since been added to the assemblage. I foresee something like 415 Madison rising here with 405 turning into a glassy restack with a few extra stories.
Interesting factoid is that 430 Park is actually 100 years old. It was stripped down to the steel frame in the 50s and refashioned into a typical international style by Emery Roth, which for the record I personally find far from "hideous" and especially after an update to the glazing received sometime in the last twenty-ish years or so. That said it is an undoubtedly underutilized site and could justifiably see replacement by a tony structure without much resistance.

That’s true. It’s a shame that the beautiful old structure was defiled.
Here's a NYT article about the building from about twenty years ago.
Thanks. I had come across that article. This building is definitely in the pipeline for redevelopment because a firm signed a seven year lease there in 2020.
I believe that Societe Generale has about another twelve years left on its lease, but at a minimum, the owner should reclad that heinous base in glass.
417 is gone. Full demolition permits were filed for 405 Park as opposed to initial plans for partial demolition but it is under different ownership as of now. 405 Park still stands.

Still not clear what will rise on these two lots. Residential or office?
