They hired some weird unprofessional work crews to remove the mattresses, chairs, flatscreens etc from all the guest suites.
I doubt more than 50% of those TVs survived that truck trip, not like vornado do gives a damn anyway

Nice article from Daytonian today!
On a side note if I were a 1%er I’d buy the portico and incorporate it into some new mansion!

Why would it get landmark status? It’s a dump, it isn’t unique, and it doesn’t have any sort of architectural importance.

Where did the 1,400 ft come from? Thought this was 1,200 ft
The latest reporting is 1270’?

a Vinoly version with Facebook pitched as the anchor tenant was proposed at 1400ft. The latest collaboration between Vornado and Foster is 1270’.

Oh, cool. The size changed to 1,400 ft in the info bar for a couple minutes (for some reasons?) so I was wondering
Oof I think my mind repressed this version. The current one is more refined.

Still not that big of a fan of the current version, but my god is it so much better than this mess.
Edit: Also was this rendering so long ago 30 HY was still under construction?

From a Vornado brochure via Manitopiaa on SSP. Not sure if this is the latest design or an outdated one.

What does this information prove? Does it reveal any height information?
I think it reveals info on the cranes, and not much else.
