Today a rendering of Zaha Hadid Architects' design for the redesign/extension of Kushner Companies' 666 Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan has been making its rounds in many of the usual places. The 1,400-foot-tall tower, if built, would sit prominently on Fifth Avenue between 52nd and 53rd Streets, about a half-block from the Museum of Modern Art.
Which made me wonder: Where is Jean Nouvel's 53W53 in the rendering? Now under construction, the 1,050-foot-tall skyscraper will tower over Cesar Pelli's Museum Tower, which is visible to the right of ZHA's tower. So in the interest of seeing how these two supertalls designed by celebrity architects would interact, I Photoshopped a side elevation of Nouvel's tower into ZHA's rendering:

thanks NYguy for Mar 27th post . .
(with great rendering) . . of Zaha Hadid's tower design . .
for the redesign of Kushner Companies' 666 Fifth Avenue . .
Wow !!!! . . it would be great to have this design here on 5th . .
I'd even swallow a bit of that presidential clown-treason for this to happen . .
sorry, real-estate has always had corruption . .
but with Kushner & his father-in law . . unbelievable . .
This tower is so amazing that a photograph of a garbage can out front would be great. I'm surprised MOMA doesn't have some cam action going on.
