Wait, those beautiful old little slices of London are being demolished? Pathetic and heinous. First the Vornado assemblage, where a gorgeous row were demolished for an empty lot, and now this. 57th used to be pretty because of these nice old buildings, now other than a few stellar towers, its going to be duller to walk through. Whatever Solow puts up is going to be less visually interesting than these nice old neo-classical buildings. I predict some kind of glass box. His legacy is going to be the destruction of beautiful buildings. I hope he doesn't get his way here.
Why on earth don't the city require facadectomies. It's pathetic how little civic pride these developers show. Philistines.
