To have such a tall tower so far from downtown constructed in the 21st century is more of a Toronto or Vancouver thing. How did this happen in New York City? ---

This area was last rezoned in 1961, when the original zoning code was passed. Height factor zoning - the bigger the lot, the taller you can go. ![images](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/a/f/afb9000d0a9c4b908c780469c91c7b1f944e1ef4.png) ---
