Yeah, Brooklyn's starting to look kinda like Newark.

Won't be long til Queens is looking like this also.

I think that Brooklyn's massing and density is going to resemble Boston within 3-5 years. Probably less than a decade away from having a top 10 stand-alone skyline in the country!

Unless it was somehow the angle I saw it from, I do believe this has surpassed the Brooklyner now.

Hey everyone one of my co-workers was at the top out ceremony this morning which has was held on the 42nd floor. He said there were some nice views there, wish he would have taken some pics!

How much cladding needs to be done. I haven' t seen an updated pic, lately.

The new KING in Brooklyn.

But not for long.

Thanks to whatever is stalling the cladding over at 29 Flatbush, it looks like this actually might finish first. Overall they are both decent enough.

Next up Citypoint phase 2 and Avalon Willoughby West.

I know the name of the real estate game is money - more cash per square in., but they need to design some skyscrapers with more character, such as classic, dramatic setbacks and maybe curves and such.

NYguy · #**112** Posted **Jun 10, 2013, 1:16 PM**

^ Brooklyn certainly does need a new definitive skyscraper for the skyline. Maybe a classic spire, or setbacks and a crown. Maybe something completely different and new. But definitely something memorable. These new buildings, though ok, are not that.

I always liked that view of Brooklyn because of all the old buildings. It was like finding yourself back in the 40's. I guess those days are officially gone. Oh well...
