Guys, if you look at the "Key Project Features" pdf, you can clearly see that these renderings are simply intended to show massing and the project will not end up looking exactly like this for a variety of reasons - among them: a)there are no balconies, b)the glass is reflective, c)there are no mechanical penthouses, and d) the glass won't likely be clean curtainwall and will incorporate spandrels and mullions.

The comments here that these renderings are bland or appear like a 1985 project are funny because the next iteration, once they incorporate the above items and knowing James Cheng, will likely be far more ugly...
