Some extra renderings. Iām disappointed of course, but at least thereās some architectural interest up close and quality of materials looks good too

I guess they will tend to use the Dekalb subway stop for commuting.

Atlantic terminal is more likely, itās closer and thereās connections to more lines.

I liked this older version of the second phase much better, with a possible illuminated crown.

Do we want to discuss the second phase in a separate thread, or do we continue here? As it is known from the beginning that a second tower is being planned/built here.

These āoversizedā windows are what I find to be the perfect size/proportion for the interiors. āStandardā sized windows being a bit too small; and floor-to-ceiling windows being a bit too much for my preference. These are āpunched windowsā leaving a fair amount of wall space above and between each window: important for art/furniture placement, and window blinds/curtain options.
_The MULLION-Less windows are fantastic: this type of unobstructed view-thru experience is optimal for views & daylight._ š
[https://study.com/academy/lesson/video/what-is-a-mullion-window.html](https://study.com/academy/lesson/video/what-is-a-mullion-window.html)
What this somewhat bland looking final design iteration is lacking in Architectural panache is more than compensated for with these well appointed interiors. The window size/placement, room proportions, ceiling height, fine finishes on walls/ceiling, minimal āmillworkā and trim for baseboard & crown moulding - all well executed.
**This is a super-smart design in every aspect: Environmentally, Aesthetically, functionally, etc.**

I believe you are right - a big downgrade on the design

Dang, I was looking forward to the cylindrical design but this one is alright. The new design does flow better with Phase One. Will be fun to watch this one go up and make its mark in the skyline.

Although I would prefer the cylindrical design, I think this will help fill in that area nicely. Bulk up Brooklyn!

This is literally just the original phase 1 but smaller.
Nvm I just checked the original design again, it was significantly better than this. And taller.
