Your pics make this building look better than it is! Haha.
Here are mine from yesterday. Low quality pics for a low quality building.
It’s ok. It replaced a horrible corner!
I agree! It’s looking a lot better than what I was expecting. This has a huge retail base. Maybe for a supermarket??
It’s better than the zebra building next door for certain…!
Skipped this in last week’s travels.
Isn’t it supposed to be topped out already?
How can a 28 story building be taller than the 45 story building across the street from it?
Ceiling heights, large lobbies, mechanical, setbacks, and so on can all make a building with lower floors become taller. Also modern buildings have higher ceiling heights versus the older pre-wars that have numerous floors, but lower height in terms of a ft/floor ratio.
Doesn’t hold water. The building I’m referring to was completed in 1977. Pre-war? Iraq? Something fishy about this.
I hope that this will get cladding to cover the concrete
I wish Port Authority will move that dang Bus Terminal to the west side of 9th Ave.
