One of these days I should take the NJ light rail to look at the new skyline from west of the Hudson.
This turned out great!

All of these new towers going up with elegant slanted roofs ruined by the big concrete mechanical boxes on the top! At least this one isn’t a terrible offender. All those towers in the new west end towers though. OOF!

So odd to see towers where you don’t expect them -
The height of Madison House stands head & shoulders over most of its surrounding buildings: for now. I think this area was ‘up zoned’ so this may change drastically in the coming years.
This turned out wonderful! I love it! that said, they could have hid the mechanicals a weensy bit better.

The tower looks great, but the developers’ failure to acquire this filthy excrement at the base renders this project a colossal failure IMO.

What’s going to be done at street level in front of the tower?
I walked by those two buildings on Saturday. It looks like the interiors are being gutted.
