The crown is a bit strange. Maybe, at least from this angle, it should be named the Darth Vader Building.

One Manhattan Square leads NYC new development sales
Kael Goodman
FEBRUARY 18, 2022
Quote:
One Manhattan Square, Extell Development’s 814-unit condominium in Manhattan’s Two Bridges neighborhood, is selling faster than any other new development in New York City, according to Marketproof’s analysis.
When looking at the past three months, One Manhattan Square saw an average of 12 contracts per month, 30 percent above the two buildings following it. Interestingly, the projects tied for the second spot were both in the outer boroughs. Downtown Brooklyn’s 11 Hoyt Street and Long Island City’s Skyline Tower sold at a rate of 9.3 contracts per month.
Quote:
The 81-story glass tower began sales in 2016 and is credited with being the first major development project in the neighborhood abutting the Lower East Side and Chinatown. Its all-time sales velocity over the past five years is 6.4 contracts per month. When we narrow it down to the past year, we see that this number has steadily increased by two additional sales every three months.
Quote:
It’s also interesting to look at Skyline Tower and 11 Hoyt as top performers in the sales velocity category. These projects, respectively, reported the most and second-most sponsor contracts of any NYC new developments in 2021. Coupled with their continued sales velocity strength, it’s clear that demand for luxury condos in the outer boroughs is growing.
Similar to One Manhattan Square, Skyline Tower has a total of 801 units. The fact that the city’s two largest developments have the strongest sales velocities shows that there is an appetite for big buildings that have many conveniences. With more people in New York City working from home, larger amenity packages are key.

No amount of sales will lesson my contempt for this eyesore.

It’s indeed a very dominating (since nothing else is around it of course, for the time being) but plain tower, but the base/podium structure and entrance are actually extremely nice.
I don’t think many people realize that the 2 ends are different colors (have a bronze like tint) than the main wide facades with their zig zag pattern extrusions.

What is this sentence supposed to mean?
I’m sure they were just stating that it’s overly bland (mediocre), it has such a calm and non intrusive façade that it’s zen.

This should give them pause to build the nearby towers. People don’t want to live in this area.
