While 66 Rockwell enjoys semi-prominence, it will be short-lived, and the high-rise will soon be visually dominated by significantly taller skyscrapers at 598 Fulton and 333 Schermerhorn Streets.

Opening is expected this year.

This has turned out nice but I think that base would have looked better with an extra 2-3 floors to match the height of its older neighbor. Also an extra 100 feet would have really emphasized its verticality.

So true. Added height would have done wonders. I think that tenement building should go also.
