This building is going to look great on Central Park West. I've said this before, but it's the exact same design as an old building across the park on 5th Avenue... but 20-25 stories taller.

Not surprising. They're trying to give it a look of something that's already been there, and for years.

43-story "Tower" on the Broadway side, 550 feet (emporis)
FACADE: limestone and glass

penthouses:



courtyard between the two towers, with a pool underneath:




Broadway side retail:

this building is already well into the middle of going up, and some of the facade is already there. From emporis, from June:

Good to finally have a thread! I had no idea this was so far into construction!

It's looking good.

You'd be surprised at what you'd find with a little search. We've had a thread going here for a while now...

Sweet shot! You can the New York Times Tower in the distance down Eighth Street!!

Does anyone know if this beauty is topped off yet? WNY had some pictures from this weekend where it looked pretty close to being at full height.

Haven't checked it out personally in a while, but it could be. This was a fast riser...
