Hey Guys, so I recently watched the film Koyaanisqatsi (great film, if you have the time, I highly recommend it). Anyways, I saw a building being demolished in one sceen in NYC, and I was wondering if someone could help me figure it out what it is. It’s the building in the foreground with the big black windows spaced between the white concrete: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/2X/1/1b4c95f3c4f0784bf5a75d346712d5e7605170e2.png) (the clip can be found [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq_SpRBXRmE)) The only building I recognize is the Financial Times building off in the background, which leads me to believe this building is somewhere north of 54th street and east of Madison Avenue, but as I’ve trawled through Emporis, I can’t seem to find any demolished buildings on their map that matches this one. Thoughts? ---
