This tower seems to be heavily influenced by 30 Rock.
Look very close at Baronsons photo, they’re tearing up concrete now! Beams are exposed too

Looks like the rooftop penthouses are going.
Is the current building vacant now, or are there still occupied lower floors?
Great pics Baronson!
The current 270 Park is empty other than the demolition workers
Just realized my pics feature our poop tanks!
Ah, thanks. For some reason I had it in my head there were still occupied floors.
So that’s what it is…

Pic by me. Taken today.

I love reading the Yimby articles about this building, I get a nice scoop of info on the progress with some great pictures, and then I get to scroll down to the comments and try to see people somehow connect the dots between skyscraper redevelopment and division of class
I do not understand the Nimby’s and the absolute pessimists
I agree. I’m all about advocating for better income equality, but people just find a way to make everything about politics these days. It’s almost inescapable.
Does anyone know when it start descending?
YIMBY commenters are… LIVELY to say the least
It already has
Yeah, at least one slab, maybe two at this point
