Wow 30 HY must have its invisibility cloak on in the last pic. I get why they did it but come on.
In a way you’re right we should be able to see 30 HY through the glass on the South side of the building.
BUT- 50 and 10 HY rise from ground level almost without setback on their Eastern elevation. In an effort to balance views 30 does the opposite, rising with no setbacks on the Western elevation. Beyond the large podium 30 becomes a much narrower tower that ‘leans’/sets back to the West.

Hmm yeah I suppose you’re right. I was just thinking if it was intentional, why even show 10 HY.
It’s likely the angle like you mentioned.
Robert I know you hate this building but damn does sure that facade look good. It’s a shame that they’ll really go all out when it comes to this building and just a mere 150 feet away you’re gonna have 3 Hudson which I feel like is going to be the joke of the whole complex.
Why are they still stating the 985 feet height?
There’s a lot of misinformation out there in real estate journalism.
This article came out 3 days ago and mentions this tower has 77 floors lol.
I can’t remember the last time I read/watched an article/video that mentions the number of actual floors (slab to slab) in the buildings they are reporting on.
He may have blocked this thread from his news feed entirely 
But I agree. While the overall design is nothing to write home about, the facade and interiors of 50 look stunning. Meanwhile 3HB was a giant tease and now we’ll have this boring glass box and a reminder of what could’ve been
Remember also how excited we all got when there was the tease rendering of a potential 2000(?) foot tall tower at the Spire site?

Crane going up
Nice shots but most are of the Spiral
Spiral has the 2 white cranes, 50 HY has the dark blue crane
Isn’t this one also the spiral?
