Yeah this one. I took that photo of the rendering a while back. :) Now is all grown up. I actually live in the neighborhood. I will try to take new photos soon.

btw, just googled it and found this: http://uwsdevelopments.wordpress.com...can-red-cross/ says it'll be 45 stories, 80/20 rental, but emporis gives 42 floors and 470'... hmmm, whatever, at least something tall is being built. :) |
NYCDOB file says 42fl and 470 ft. Respectable height given the area.
|
Yawn.
|
I expect more out of Netherlands architecturally speaking.
|
Pretty nice. :)

The previous (and unbelievably beautiful) proposal for this site was going to be a 70+ story tower designed by Christian de Portzamparc with space at the base for the New York City Opera:

what's the location of the tower?
|
Right by the Lincoln Centre of the Performing Arts near the southwestern end of Central Park. Correct my if Im wrong.
|

One of the "Sleeper" towers rising in the city.

anyone have any recent pics?

I'll take a photo this weekend if I get down there. I was by it on Sunday, and it doesn't look better with more glass on it. It's also very close to if not topped out. It's not a bad building, per se, just boring, and while I rarely buy the "out of place for the neighborhood" argument, I think it fits pretty well here.
|
So that's what they're building. I live nearby but don't venture west of Broadway in the 60s unless I'm going to a bike shop over that way.
