More views of the TREES…please.


This rendering was posted in this thread by our own Robertwalpole: the trees will never be this robust looking on the facade.
Here is a recent photo…reality vs. rendering.
I like this photo posted by NYguy on skyscraper page. It shows some of the greenery. They look good there on those set-back areas; but nothing as robust looking as in the architectural renderings.

Greenwashing is not new, but they really did make an effort to make these garden terraces a reality and it looks great. I think the trees will grow a bit in due time anyway

BIG / the developer deserve an award just for not doing a bait and switch from rendering to actuality with the greenery.

I think it’s just reflecting 50 HY’s lights here😂 however, the terraces have illumination to create a nice lighting scheme.

Its “lighting scheme” is a dud. Had potential but its wasted. It is easily drowned out by interior lights. Had the spiral lights be a cooler white or a different color altogether it would be less of a dud and have serious potential for cool effects.

Also yeah, its a reflection. You can see the white vertical facade elements of 50HY as well on the Spiral. The Spiral is all glass.
