So far, this one is turning out to be a pleasant surprise. The curtainwall is not too exciting, but its got great height, an interesting massing and respects the streetwall.
This should poke out quite prominently behind 250 West 55h, as it has another few hundred feet to go before topping-out. People will be pleasantly surprised, IMO.
No argument here, but I think people are going to start to notice this one very soon as it becomes the tallest in the immediate vicinity. I think I have a special interest too because my first job in New York was at 1675 Broadway, just two blocks away.
It really does show resemblance to 4WTC at this point. Much skinnier and different setback location, but the two definitely look like siblings... although it's fair to say 4 WTC is much more beautiful, I think.
