That woman who thought they were falling over must be pretty stupid

Stupid? I doubt it. That’s a bit strong to say the least. Probably just “shocked” would be more apt. And that’s actually a correct reaction. It’s not about beauty but engineering power. Not the best compliment for a building!
I agree with chused. Under construction, a lot of the intentionality in the design is lost, and the potential sense of danger increased.
Any reasonably intelligent person would realize a couple things:
If a building were falling over, it would be making an incredible amount of noise and commotion. Not just silently standing there
Construction crews would be running away from the site, not continuing about their work
Other people on the highline and the surrounding area would also be reacting. She can’t honestly believe she was the only one who noticed a 400 foot building falling over?
Maybe you’re right, maybe not stupid, but to call 911 with everything stated above, and to tie up some of the cities’ valuable emergency resources, I at least question her judgment lol
Perhaps. Part of my reaction also was to the use of strong language like “stupid.” I really don’t think that’s appropriate on a public forum. We can state opinionated views without edging toward the demeaning side. Thanks.
i don’t have a problem with the overall shape of this, but I’m most concerned about the window color choice. The black is just not working for me. Perhaps when it’s done and a lighter color cladding is installed between the windows, I will like it a little more.
Tectonic
My one complaint about this building is that it turns its back on the HL; I think it’s most unflattering angle will be the one from which it’s most viewed.
Does anyone have floor plans of the lower levels of the building? I am an architecture student doing a research project for my class. Floor plans would help a lot as well as elevator and stair locations as my research mainly deals with vertical circulation.
Entire lobby plans are rare. I found these a bunch of unit floor plans you could use to deduce where the core is
Yeah those were about the only thing I could find thank you for your help though!
I really hope that isn’t the final cladding
