Thanks to EB-5 provision, Witkoff’s 1 Park Lane is in a low-income neighborhood

Nice rendering in that article:
http://therealdeal.com/wp-content/up.../05/36-CPS.jpg Tad bit bigger than one above. CTBUH has one too. http://legacy.skyscrapercenter.com/c...(c)Witkoff.jpg =============== CTBUH |
Not at all a fan of that weird setback from CPS' streetwall. I'm hoping this one gets a redesign before it seriously approaches fruition.

I hope the demolition of the hotel starts soon!

We have two conflicting heights. WSJ claims 900 ft but TRD claims 1,210 ft... :???:
If thats the case, WSJ, this will be what rises http://cdn.cstatic.net/images/gridfs...21.22%20AM.png ===================== Swanky New York Condo Project Exploits Aid Program Quote:

Obviously a 1,210ft tower would be great but I would actually be totally fine if this ends up being somewhere between 900-1000ft because that means Verre would be able to stand out a bit more in the skyline from Central Park.
Also, I sorta like the idea that the billionaire towers on Central Park South are around 900ft but then they gradually ascend to 1000ft+ as the streets themselves descend in their numbers. |
1.7 billion is too high of a figure for a non-supertall. Like NYGuy mentioned, probally an earlier design reference, which makes sense. Witkoff would be foolish not to take advantage of the market and build higher. More units, more cash.

Looks like 36 CP will partially cover 31 W 57th's views. 31 W will have to be taller to get the most money from the top floors. |
This video is over a year old, but we can see Witkoff was closely watching Vornado's 220 Central Park South. That one is doing fantastic, and we can see how that has driven to development here....

Old and new Manhattan collide just south of Central Park By Tom Acitelli October 29, 2015 Quote:

That seems to be old info (1210').
They don't have to build as high as possible on that plot. And building high greatly increases the cost. I'm expecting 900 feet or so, as in the more recent renderings. |

Small version seen on this model of the Tower Verre. Of course, they would be foolish to put anything taller on the model as it will show inteference with the view...:surrender:
