this, 277 Fifth and 126 Madison are seriously great skyline additions. Reaching new heights in NoMad with excellent designs.

This tower is definitely something out of the 1930/40s

This rates ‘best’ on the good/better/best scale of beauty. Most importantly: this is not an ‘all glass’ curtain wall. The all glass curtain walls are almost always a VE move: pour reinforced concrete superstructure - then tack on flat glass panels top-to-bottom.
This not only has some solid material on the facade other than glass: those metal panels have beautifully detailed patterns embossed on the surface. This sort of thing adds both cost in materials, and significant additional cost in time/effort to assemble the facade.
Great to see this: and given all the attention and accolade these efforts get on the various architecture forums - I am sure it is well worth the added expense.

It’s still hard for me to get used to this area filling up with towers.

This building is pretty nice, I just wish the initial setback from the street went up to the same floor as the cantilever.
