Yeah, this block kinda sucks. I always thought it would make sense to expand the WTC site eastward towards Broadway, redeveloping the Century 21 tower and the lowrise junk along Broadway. Something like a 6 and/or 8 WTC.

Hopefully this is just the beginning of a full-block assemblage. SL Green is very patient, so may have its eye on a larger site. They waited forever to assemble the One Vanderbilt site.
