Except, I clearly did it to show what Mackensen’s photos made me think of? I didn’t have time to superimpose two photos for that myself. ---

Which is insane as 1 Vandy, if anybody has seen it from afar or upclose, is already massive enough and it looks like it hasn’t eaten in months compard to big boy 270 Park. 175 Park… 🙏🍻 Its a shame the LES towers didn’t manifest on a side note around the cherry street area. Would of really made the lower east side dominate from this perspective. ---

I did the research earlier, 270 Park is more than 800,000 square ft compared to One Vandy. That’s truly insane, but expected in modern architecture ---
