They probably only have a loan for site prep. There’s no chance this will be financed unless he lands a tenant that pre-leases half of it.
As predicted! Thank you, Jesus!!!
Hopefully, the next developer will build a very tall and iconic residential tower.
Amennnnn
Guess its karmic payback for demolishing the Bancroft building!
This is America. NOBODY is stronger than the almighty Jesus!
Hallelujah!
No. The tallest this building can be is about 100 feet. Any taller and it would block the Empire State Building. If that happens, then there is no New York anymore. The Empire State Building is the crown jewel of the skyline.
It would only block it from certain perspectives.
The ESB will always be there.
This isn’t 1931, 1970, or even 2000. It’s been king for 90 years. It’s time to build bigger and taller all over the island.
I couldn’t agree with you more, but a super tall one or two blocks south of the Empire State Building is just too close. The empire station/penn station projects are just fine.
This one doesn’t have to be super tall.
I think that a thin 1,200-1,400’ tower wouldn’t detract from the ESB at all.
I thought that it would be west of the ESB. I agree with you. That would not look good. It should be no higher than 400’.
I’m all leaving some viewing room around the ESB.
The views looking south to North and vice versa would be completely destroyed. That view should be preserved. Nothing taller than 400’ is fine.
excellent news!
This is good news!
