New York’s skyline is so crazy transformed from the first time I visited in 1999.

But will the skyline transformation continue with the next mayor? I haven’t heard anything from the current candidates about their preference for taller buildings. Will we see New York’s first mega tall soon? I have no idea.
Only if it’s between 1969 and 1999.99 feet. It doesn’t matter if it’s building height or building-plus-spire total height, the limit in the USA is 2000 feet.

I’m aware of that. A mega tall is still a mega tall.

Wow! Such an amazing angle. Does anyone have an updated picture?

Wow. Somebody needs to go “break down” there with a telephoto lens.
I didn’t follow the mayor race carefully since there were so many candidates, but now that Eric Adams is in the lead, I have looked into it…
This is a post from YIMBY in 2014 when Eric Adams spoke about high-rise construction in Brooklyn. Build, Baby, Build: A Conversation With Brooklyn B.P. Eric Adams
Is this still relevant for his views today? If so, then this is good news!
