Please Leave Comments. Good or Bad they are greatly appreciated!

This is a pictorial overview of the site and the buildings on it. ENJOY!

CASSIDY PLAZA:

This overpass or "sky bridge" will run across 8th Avenue.

Like the WTC, each building will have a sign like this one to indentify the building.

Once again, please leave a comment. If you can make it as explanatory as possible.

no complaints from me here , looks like you are close to doing the rest of the render ?

Dac150 · #44 Posted **Jul 1, 2007, 11:46 PM**

I cannot show the final render for privacy reasons.

However, I need some more comments. Please, they are a big help!

Mocholate · #45 Posted **Jul 1, 2007, 11:52 PM**

ah , i see , ok i have a question then i was gonna ask , how tall is the observation deck on Cassidy plaza 2 and will you be putting some sort of railing around it ? also how come the faces are reversed on some parts , thanks , keep up the good work

Edit, silly me , the height is clearly written there

The outside observation deck of Tower 2 sits above the 90th which is 1,200ft above street level. The inside observation deck is located on the 89th floor. I want people to get the experiance year round. On the 90th floor there is a 5 star restaurant with 360 degree views of Manhattan, New Jersey, and the other boroughs. And yes, railing with span around the perimeterm of the deck.

I don't understand your second question.

where the faces are that blue-grey colour the faces are reversed

Dac150 · #48 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 12:18 AM**

Its no big deal I guess. This is just a model to show you forumers.

If you have any additional questions please ask.

Mocholate · #49 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 12:27 AM**

just wondering why it was , i dont really understand what difference it makes having reversed faces ,just hoping you could tell me

Dac150 · #50 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 12:42 AM**

I dont even understand, I just made this to show you guys.

i really love the entire complex. it's designed really good. i also have some questions. is the city going to allow you to demolish all the current buildings to build this? will those people be relocated? i'm sorry, i just don't know a lot about that stuff. i'm curious.

also, i'll try to explain as best as i can. i noticed this in the original updates too. at the bottom of tower two on the side that slopes down, there is a line of windows. they have a bottom cut in half and then a half circle above it those halves. i like the design of the windows, but against the slope something seems a little odd with them, but it may just be me. I think the angled slope is contrasting with the curve on the half circle of the windows? especially the last window where it almost meets the bottom of the slope where it meets the ground. there is like an empty spot like a trianlge where the same type of curved window design won't fit. if you don't know what i'm talking about i would be glad to circle the area in photoshop.

Thank you for responding first off,

To answer your first question: I would simply buy out the owners of the buildings that are currently on the plot. Those tactics are done constantly when it comes to developing buildings. For the right price, they'll move. Other times (if your fortunate as a developer) the city could evict the people out of the homes, or businesses and relocate them. Mostly though the developer or partner buys them out.

If you can like you said, circle the area in photo shop, that would be great. I can't understand the second question.

thanks for answering my first question

here is a circle around the windows i was meaning.

i like the design of them. i'm assuming the split on the bottoms are doors? anyways, the arrow points to the main thing i was mentioning. it leaves an empty triangle space becauase the curved window can't fit against the slope going down. maybe i'm just picky?

perhaps a triangle window could fit into the empty part? one could also go on the right side, but the point facing the other way to make it look the same. like this:

plus, it's not like they would be the only triangle windows in that part alone. just above them in the mock glass section there are triangle windows where it meets the angle. but i'm no expert...it's up to you!

Dac150 · #54 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 3:53 AM**

The hollow space is just a experimental glitch.

The things on the botton are multiple double doors that lead into the central grand lobby of tower 2 from the plaza. The curved glass above the doors is just decorative.

The triangle was made just to add a little twist to the design. Inside will be portions of trading floors, a restaurant, and television studio (I would love to sign either CBS, or FOX).

You also have given a good suggestion. I'll consider it and play around with it. Triangle windows would flow with the rest.

Thanks again for the questions! (I'll answer any more if you have.)

Peter · #55 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 4:16 AM**

thank you for explaining everything. good luck if this is for real! if i have any more questions i'll ask.

Wow, stunning work!

Dac150 · #57 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 2:50 PM**

Thank you Peter and Fox.

Dac150 · #58 Posted **Jul 2, 2007, 3:14 PM**

Peter-

I have decided to go with your triangle idea, but only on the left side of the building. It flows pretty well and adds that commonality of an all glass look for that portion of Tower 2.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Peter · #59 Posted **Jul 3, 2007, 4:10 PM**

excellent! i am glad to help.

if i notice any thing else i will post for you

Dac150 · #60 Posted **Jul 3, 2007, 10:49 PM**

Sounds good.
