The rules that I follow when it comes to NYC development are easy to remember and guarantee that any tall building fan won't be dissapointed if they remember them;
1. Be optimistic about the quantity of proposals, they will exceed anyone's wildest imaginations.
2. The timetables proposed by developers are always total BS and have almost no reflection on reality because they tend to be off by several years at least, especially if they announce a project early.

The timetables are BS because of the regulations and other regulatory nonsense that delay important and timely things such as financing, approvals and so forth.
We don't need no height limits either.
All that nonsense about air rights in a big city should be tossed out the window.
If you own the land, you own the air above your land.
