In the Midtown East rezoning there were planned at least 15 new Towers (even could be 25-30).
I feel after the pandemic everything has slowed down and just 4 skyscrapers are close to become a reality more than 7 years after that rezoning…
270 Park Ave, 350 Park Ave , The Commodore Project and 343 Madison Ave… Lexington and specially 3rd Ave need a redevelopment AF.

A developer’s plans to reinvent a Midtown office building are coming into sharper focus.
Vanbarton Group, one of the city’s most-active converters of commercial towers into rental housing, seeks to create 420 apartments at 1011 First Ave., the soon-to-be-former headquarters of the Archdiocese of New York, according to a new filing.
The filing, submitted Thursday to the city’s Department of Buildings, also calls for extending the height of the 398,200-square-foot structure by 6 stories, from 20 to 26. And Vanbarton intends to renumber the blockwide site as 1005 First Ave., according to the filing, which was first reported on by PincusCo.
