Architectural element remaining. I don't believe its fully topped out in the sense of including the crown/architectural element, but its almost there.

Only in NY does a 893 ft tower just blend in.

Its so crazy that an almost 900ft tall tower gets lost in the sea of skyscrapers.

I had a dream that they had value engineered this building by removing the middle fin. Scary thoughts!

This thing should've been 300 feet taller. Oh well, I'm still pleased with the outcome. But the cladding on the final will look different than they originally showed

Yup. This tower at nearly 1,200 ft. would have made an impact. At nearly 900 ft. it's nothing, especially because the spire (so far) doesn't have an impact in the daytime.

Thank you, ridiculous NYC zoning laws.

This would be ranked the 32nd tallest in the city if we count the other u/c towers over that height. Rank 32 at 893 ft!
