I really hope that these sites are combined. It would be a crime not to.

A good site for a Supertall
It’s actually not, this site is less than half the size of the neighboring 425 Park Ave lot, which itself is only 860’. Even both sites combined (405+417) have a smaller lot area than 425.
As I recall though, 425 was built before the rezoning took effect.
That may be, but it was still built as if the MER had already been in effect with a +/- 25 FAR. This is because the building used part of the original 425 PA to avoid decreasing it’s FAR had it been demolished completely.
