That’s a pretty awful diagram in that they make 1 WTC look even more gargantuan than it already is. Look at the ESB in comparison (the antenna of the ESB is actually ~100 feet higher than 1WTC’s roof) or how 432 is shorter in roof height (not true!).

This is much more accurate; credit to the SSP Diagram Section:

Just an update: I’ll be working on two huge compilations in the weeks to come. Will literally cover 100’s of projects. :wink:

Actually, I want to make it the largest on the net. Even bigger than the SSP ones, and if you’ve ever seen those, it covers over 1700+ projects for NYC.

I think some of you have seen the high and mid/low threads on ssp. Well, they are coming here. But it will include more!

Will keep you guys updated. :blush:

NOW:

From you guys… any feedback. Maybe something you would like to see?

O and I’ll also be organizing a lot of things like threads. Will be going through many and changing the status. I know some are complete already. Housecleaning essentially.

What’s the chance of the Shop tower over in the Hudson Yards area being developed soon? Or is a many years from now tower??

They way things are going hopefully soon. SHoP has a couple of towers in the pipeline right now. Hidden from view, and stuck inside a drawing board or autocad.

Credit goes to ssp user CIA.

This being a list for Jersey City aka NYC’s Taiwan. JC is unofficially part of NYC, but they want to deny it. With a boom like this, it should be the 6th Borough.

The Donald talking some real estate. Found it interesting.

he gives some really good insights to NYC real estate.

This is pretty cool. A giant compilation of pre war towers built and with images from 1874-1900.

Honest question. Do not want to start a political discussion.

I am just curious what affect you think Donald Trump’s election will have on our age of Ramses (if any)?

Please just keep it to the effect on NYC real estate.

I think that the economy will boom, and the demand for office space will rise.

Agree with Bob, but I am biased toward Austrian economic principles. I do worry about inflation after the Fed has kept rates low for so long.

I think inflation is the only way to fix our debt problem. A decade of “high” inflation at 6% would reduce our debt burden by 50% compared to inflation we have had the past decade. If this is coupled with a booming economy it could work.

Inflation can be a by product of a hyper active economy as demand rises for cash.
