And there’s the next setback to the Spiral
Do you happen to know ceiling height for most floors? Those panels are enormous next those dudes.
No clue, looks over 15 feet to me!

The stepped, spiral design is much more prominent here! Looking good
Became more prominent because they removed that black netting that goes from floor to ceiling. Also notice fire proofing is working its way up above the base
How high is this tower and 50 Hudson yards?
This is over 360 feet, 50 HY’s core is over 250 feet
I like the spiral shape a great deal and the glass panels appear to be good quality. But, ugh. Another glass tower. Enough already, especially at Hudson Yards.
I find the “another glass building” argument to be kinda unnecessary. We live in a world where now glass towers are extremely popular, I don’t think we’ll be seeing less. What we need to see is less boxes
Glass curtain walls being popular doesn’t mean that the argument for less of them is unnecessary. Especially as we deal with climate change, the efficiency of glass curtain wall systems are a huge factor in making an efficient building. There are tons of examples of brick, concrete, and other materials being used to clad buildings. 50 Hudson is an example of both stone and glass being used, same with the Steinway Tower. Just saying that variety is good too!
That last statement I agree with for sure
