Midtown East’s rezoning is starting to bloom… Slowly, but surely.🌱 This merger should yield over 1 million sq ft of buildable new office space. ---

Wow, this is amazing and surprising news. It’s like the Leadenhall in London, but I cant tell which one I like better! What is the possibility of this happening soon? The booklet mentions it’s just a concept idea. I guess they are looking to see how well received it is and possible tenant inquiries.

It’s definitely Foster, the West wall looks kind of like 425 Park’s East wall and it has everything he puts in his designs, like triangles and metal cladding. What’s funny is I always imagined a skyscraper in NYC with two spires, now it’s real! And I just finished the 3d model ---

We’re pretty sure it’s Foster, it’s pretty in line with his recent designs and it’s similar to the design he made for that tower in India years ago. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/5/6/5620e654bfe1bbee3f11e200b86d2ea224a32fd9.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/9/9/994a695765da06e7e366df4b80b36dda14eacd6f.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/a/2/a2a5a4707768d183ab94bb68e8ecfdcca9f330bb.jpeg) It’s even got a similar base to 270 park ave ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/d/6/d6e3e1f0f946553e96df6963dd9b8bf94ee78c1d.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/0/2/02c0d4d281b3b770b3a93c5a6fd787f47b211463.jpeg) [Next page](https://forum.newyorkyimby.com/t/new-york-350-park-avenue-1-414-ft-64-floors/4854.md?page=2)
