Someone with a good camera has to get over here. From my job in Times Square, I can see the cube looks to be fully cladded and the glass has also reached the top.

Okay so I had some free time on Tuesday afternoon, and took some pics with my phone. good stuff







The glass on the base is literally like a mirror. I think it's gonna be sweet when it's occupied and all lit at night

Wow, that tower and cladding got done super quick!

Very nice tower. Will it have any sort of special lighting (LED's, lit crown, etc)???

The massing seems a little random and disjointed, but I like the quality of the cladding. It is nice filler.

Blue Light???

So.... there's a tree partially blocking my view... but from my apartment window I can see what looks like either a super bright blue sign, or perhaps a rotating blue beacon light at the top of this new hotel.

Has anyone captured this on video or camera at night???

Thanks!!!

The base looks fairly decent:


This angle may be becoming repetitive:


Is that an elevator shaft on the base in the lower right?

I think it's an adequate addition - even at 750', it really isn't all that prominent.

Only a few cities in the world can claim that. And New York is one of them.
