Kind of plain from a distance.

Yeah I was hoping for better detailing along the windows. It looks kinda like a tombstone from afar…

I was expecting the same, a bit more detail.

There is ‘curbside appeal’ and then there is ‘skyline appeal’ depending on the vantage point of the viewer: this building is a bit plain looking from the ‘skyline’ perspective. However, I find this facade - and the overall architectural design - to have great ‘curbside’ appeal. When one gets up close and personal with this condo building it has plenty of good looks and personality. This is one of the finest high rise condo building designs in NYC; a quality that will serve the developer well in this now highly competitive luxury condo market.

What @infoshare said about the curb appeal is so true. In daytime, from distance, this building will not look beautiful…However, I hold out hope that it will look pretty special at night - We should be able to see the interior illumination from those huge, curved windows which are quite unique.

Same. I thought that a more decorative facade would be awesome but from far away this looks pretty bad to me. From up close it looks depressing though decent but from everywhere else it has the blockiness of 19 Dutch and the roughness of Southbridge Towers, neither of which are a pleasant thing to look at.

I like it a lot. A welcome change from the usual blue glass.

Probably hard to see in B&W but there are two guys way up out on the end of that hoist getting the rigging in place or something

Beautiful looking condo tower: the dark stone facade, the curve at top of windows, the smooth surface recessed window frames, the rough textured surface, angled ridges on each floor - an artful composition.

I am glad the ‘Lightstone’ development group choose an Architect who used ‘darkstone’ concrete panels on the building facade: a delightful irony.
