NEW YORK | The Greenwich (125 Greenwich St) | 912 FT | 72 FLOORS

While I feel the giant blank concrete walls could’ve used SOME sort of treatment (like a coat of paint or faux glass), having the crane gone and seeing it finally complete makes it at least a decent filler in the skyline! Nothing mind-blowing, but nothing terrible either!

WOW…exciting to see. :star_struck:

IMHO, Architectural excellence combined with interior design brilliance. The interiors here are impressive; understated, elegant - simply ‘tasteful’.

The Greenwich has been a long time coming; but the final results have turned out fantastic - INSIDE & out. Great to see this done, and done well.

BTW - This reminds me (in spirit, not appearance) of a modern day version of the “Enright House” - a luxury residential skyscraper. Pardon my current infatuation with Howard Roark… :heart_eyes:

Looks like they turned on the crown lighting. Let’s pray it doesn’t get affected by the broken-lights plague the rest of the towers in this city suffer from.

Stunning shot! I guess I’m in the minority, but I like it: it has a dystopian vibe, but in a good way :slight_smile:

I like it too, at least from a distance. But closer up, the raw cement switches from off white to dirty white. Some sort of finish needs to be installed or applied.

Unfortunately, that is the case.

That lower/middle section is particularly dirty/blotchy - the whole wall section looks ‘unfinished’. All attempts to do ‘architectural concrete’ should be abandoned; it never looks quite right. :pensive:

This photo by Alemel will illustrates the point.
