Today ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/2X/d/df0f9846180246606485e33a459be52742b4282b.jpg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/2X/b/b5f829757c67205e44785c077e3a7b10d374d4e2.jpg) I find it Insane that this hyper-luxurious entrance will be next to those filty, dilapidated tenants with cheap delus and nail salons. I would not want to spend $50m and live next to that dreck. Alternatively , that dreck will come down in a few years and a new tower will rise which blocks the views from 520 Park. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/2X/9/9c469a155d895df4102b0d0edbcd83a1fceee50e.jpg) ---

It reminds me a little bit of 15 Central Park West with the Indiana limestone. ---

I think it’s mostly brick above the base. It’s a beautiful building , but those eyesores next door detract from it. They’re owned by the same LLC. When they’re redeveliped, they likely will detract from 520 Park’s views. ---

this tower is climbing rather slowly for a super-slim. ---

Actually, one entity owns the four adjacent tenements. Therefore, a tower, as tall, or taller, will rise right next door! ---
