Nice picture here:

Itâs so tall now! Holy cow. It really shot up quickly. I love it!
These look to be from a while ago, no? Itâs definitely taller than that now.
Agreed. Certainly occupied floors are topped out.
Great picture. On a side note, I love the Long Lines Building. So bizarre and creepy, and better than usual Brutalism. Iâm surprised itâs not in more films.

Agreed. I hate brutalism but I love it.
Feel same way. I love theâŚwhat are they⌠not windowsâŚâportsâ? haha. Also interesting texture and color.
Personally I donât care about the back much since youâll see 5 Beekman most of the time which is worse than a blank wall
30 Park Place, Woolworth, and 25 Park Row will make a very handsome cluster.
Agreed @colrain this building complements the area nicely. 5 Beekman on the other hand, is a turd in the punch bowl. I still canât believe that thing got built. Just looking at it, I can imagine the conversations between the architects,
âHey, sooo the roof is just flat and concreteâŚkinda looks like a driveway. Should we put something there?â
âHmmâŚwe have some left over steel beams. Maybe we can make some sweet pyramids out of them.â
âRightâŚsure. And what about the back of the building? Itâs also just boring concrete.â
âWell we used the spare steel on the roof so letâs just paint fake steel on the backâ
This is helping to block 5 Beekman.
All I ever see in 5 Beekman is a certain Madonna pointy outfit that she donned.The building would be significantly better without those pyramids.
