Yeah its an eyesore. That’s kinda the thing with large booms, sometimes you win, sometimes not. I think DoBro has been spared. There are some truly terrible towers that have risen or are rising in Manhattan. A lot of good ones, but also some terrible. ---

I don’t have a DSLR so my pics are not the best quality. I think different vantage points are more important. You should definitely retake this when 9 DeKalb sprouts up. 🙂 ---

Agreed. The vantage point from this park is quite unique, where you get a view of three burgeoning skylines. JC, Manhattan and Brooklyn. I will definitely do that!
