What? River side Plaza is a good vision.
Okay
Ok, I don’t know what you’re exactly trying to say here. But anyways, so what I’m hearing here is that you don’t mind posting the Riverside Plaza here because it’s a “good vision”, yet want to police spam other concepts or visions that you claimed, “don’t belong in this thread/off-topic”. Got it.
I wonder if there’s any update on that site that has yet to be redeveloped.

Forgot to mention that I just reviewed his Instagram account, and he makes pretty good concepts, most of them look like it’s already in real life or even google earth/maps.

Oh yeah his stuff is super high quality. I DMed him and apparently it’s just a hobby.

Ah, that’s understandable. And indeed these concepts are really high quality that it looks cursed (in a good way)
Not my best work, but NYMAN on Flickr posted this amazing shot of the skyline, and I wanted to add 270 and 175 Park.

Missing credits for myself, Xing_Lin (or ThreeWentDown), and I believe JCHeights as well. Xing Lin is missing from the previous video as well 
. Otherwise nice little video updates.
As for the reasoning behind the height cut towards 262 5th Ave, it wasn’t because it’s close proximity to the ESB, it was just cut short for all we know at the moment, but not because of the aforementioned reasoning.

The Wikipedia page for tallest buildings in the us is very outdated, specifically the proposed/under construction section
I’ll take a crack and add some missing projects but if anyone wants to expand please feel free, I feel like so many new projects get announced and things like this get missed

This is so awesome!! Thanks for posting.
I actually just uh… reuploaded that panorama in place on Flickr because I noticed that the top floors and crown of the Spiral were stitched incorrectly and caused it to lean to the left a few degrees. I was trying to let it go but yeah my brain wouldn’t let me haha.

Oh dang, I see it now! I’ve updated my renderings with the fixed stitch now.

740 Eighth in the grand scheme of things, as seen from The Edge:
It is very likely that one tower of the PABT redevelopment will block 740 partially or completely from this angle – you can see a small corner of the existing PABT just above 50HY’s far corner here.

That location will be the shorter/smaller of the commercial office towers on Site 2, so it will block the actual hotel portion but not the jumble on top, the largest/tallest of the Towers at Site 1 would be to the right of the McGraw Hill building, so it wouldnt block any of it.

Thanks for the clarifications – I had hedged that the eventual redevelopment may not exactly follow the F+P masterplan in terms of tower massing and placement, but in terms of the masterplan your description is very accurate!
A rough block model of the PABT masterplan from The Edge – the tower heights are based on TKDV’s estimates from the PABT thread (~900’ and ~1200’):
