It appears that the column coverings are mounted at a slight slant, presumably to match with the building curve. If that is right it is another marker as to how carefully the plans were developed. ---

That is correct the column covers are slanted to align with the angle of the tabletop floor, this is because all of the facade column covers are connected in a single network from the fan column nodes to where the coverings end on each tier. In a similar manner, the only “flat” covers are the 2 middle most ones as that portion of the tabletop octagon is flat. ---

Anyone know what divisions of JPM would go into 270 park? I would assume Investment Banking, Asset Management, Trading maybe Research. They probably aren’t going to house ops or trade support guys in this building ---

Do they plan on selling 383 Madison? I just assumed they would consolidate into at least a two building campus. Even if they wanted sell there aren’t many landlords in a position to buy it right now. ---

I don’t recall hearing of any plans for a sale. I’m just speculating but I think JPMC will remain the landlords of 383, which they can use as a flex space for their own workers, and which will still command top rents for the remaining space. They’re not hurting for cash — I mean, we’re not talking about Silicon Valley Bank here 😂 [Previous page](https://forum.newyorkyimby.com/t/new-york-270-park-ave-1-389-ft-70-floors/4189.md?page=145) [Next page](https://forum.newyorkyimby.com/t/new-york-270-park-ave-1-389-ft-70-floors/4189.md?page=147)
