I saw a guy taking photos in the middle of the street on 32nd between 9th and 10th this morning around 11. Was that you?
I was tempted to ask if he was a yimby forums member.
Nah must have been someone else. I took these around 2:30. Also we have clock emojis for specific times? Cool.
Already moving onto the third floor?!?! Exciting times.
Strangely for most of the ground floor there are no girders in place. Its easy to look down into the foundation level
I know lots of people aren’t fans of this tower but I’ve grown to like it, it’s like a modern take on the ancient ziggurat. Sure, it might be a little gimmicky but I think it’s more creative than slapping a setback or two on an otherwise boring box (looking at you, 50 Hudson Yards).
Also, I love the sheer bulk of this thing. It’s shocking to think that a tower this thick is going to be around the same height as the Chrysler Building. Makes 30 Hudson (which is a bulky tower) look skinny.
Apparently they added a floor to the building, so it’ll be taller
it’s so always satisfying when buildings go vertical…
This building is an absolute behemoth
So is 50… the scale is mind-boggling. Can’t wait to watch these things fly up this year
