You guys throw up 600 ft buildings like there is no tomorrow. I can't even describe my envy!

I agree! What a beautiful building.

How amazing would it be to live at the top of One Madison Park with a stunning nightview of that MetLife tower!

We were in NYC last week, these are from my walks around the city.

From that big pier off 10th in the Village.




I don't remember exactly what street this was. Bedford Ave, somewhere in Williamsburg, where it nicely terminates the street.


On Kent Ave, the Williamsburg waterfront, right at the base of those new towers. Nice view.

This tower is increible! So thin and tall, only in NYC would this building work.

This tower is great. Its thinness actually makes it appear taller/more majestic than it really is.

It's a nice tower, and I think it complements both the Flatiron and the MetLife.

I think this tower almost looks like the proposal in Chicago for the tribune tower, the one which looked like a giant pillar. This tower is like a modern version of that, at least imo.

I think the other buildings around it are beautiful. Are you talking about the Life Insurance building? If so, than you are crazy, lol. Also, those other smaller brick buildings are fascinating in their own right. You dont see many thin tall historic buildings like that in many cities. And NYGuy, thats exactly what I was talking about!
