I think my over/under on five pages of nothingness until actual information is looking good.

Too suspenseful

Don't worry, we are.

I look forward to seeing a rendering! Looks like a great project.

[UrbanImpact]

Guys, stop bumping this thread up until we have a rendering or any official info. It's a tease everytime i see this thread has a new message.

[RoldanTTLB]

Geez! Why does everyone have to be so picky about information being official. Blah blah blah! It's april fools, so surely I could post something unrelated, or try to pass off some other random building as the rendering for this, but for you guys, nothing of the sort! Since it hasn't been posted here yet, here's the plot diagram for the site. The base of this tower is going to be very irregularly shaped. Knowing CDP, that will continue up the tower. Of that I am sure...

Look what I found!*

[NYguy]

That's cool, just a massing looks like, but seeing the Tower Verre there breaks my heart.

[Bucktown718]

I Hope they will have some sort of spire on top of the building

But think of all the children in Central Park forever damned to whither in the shadow of the Tower Verre if it were built. Your heart isn't broken, it's just not there!

[Thymant]

I know a shadow from the hot sun, oh how the children will cry and feel sad at the park. It's not that serious.

did tower verre get cancelled?

[rich_200]

Finally the skyline of Central Park will have a major change

[scalziand]

Yes, the render I posted is just a massing model. I created it using the diagram roldanTTLB posted as a guideline for the massing. Even at just 953' it is quite dominating. Just imagine it with some sort of crown or spire.

huh? when did it get canceled?

oh well not surprising, but at least this building will be really awesome. Massing looks good.

[FerrariEnzo]

It wasn't canceled, I think he is referencing the fact that 200 ft had to be chopped off...

[Zapatan]

Oh well, even at 1050 it would still look cool if built. I'd imagine it would complement this building really well.

[NYC4Life]

With 157 W. 57th, 250 E. 57th, Tower Verre, City Spire Center, Metropolitan Tower, Carnegie Hall Tower, Solow Building, Hearst Tower, Time Warner Center....That northwest corner of Midtown is really screaming skyscrapers.
