Lights back on last night—and at a more business like hour in the evening. Maybe the shake down period is ending.

the red coloration is fantastically Sauron-like.

One does not simply walk into One57

Can’t get a good picture with my phone but the crown lighting on One57 is working full blast tonight. The system is displaying changing patterns of American flag themes. This is the first time a sense of the potential of the system has become visible.

The floodlights on 220 CPS really add a lot more depth to the crown, almost like actual thought and foresight was put into it. Not to beat a dead horse, but the ones on 157 look like aftermarket LEDs on an old car.

Colrain–I do agree that the crown lighting at 220 is much more interesting and architecturally well integrated into the design of the building. In a perverse way the same can be said about One57. The LED system at One57 fits “well” with the building which, in my opinion, is not attractive–flashy, different, odd, and unattractive. The lighting should be in Times Square, not overlooking the august environs of Central Park.

I just noticed that this, CPT and 111 W57 have lights in their crowns. They should all look great when complete. There’s also 432 Park with it’s drums lit up too

looks like a fingernail

Not really very interesting—much like the rest of the building. All show and very little class.

Check out that penthouse

I think that is Michael Dell’s place.

I’m always in favor of a light feature on these buildings so it’s hard for me to hate this. But the execution here just feels tacky. Like is this Pacha nightclub?
