And both CPT and 111 W 57th seem too tall compared with 432 Park Ave, although that coule be because 432 Park Ave is farther away.

^No.

And it appears you've answered your own question about 432.

It's a pretty darn good gif that I'm sure TK2001 didn't spend weeks designing. Heights are close enough.

Well, there's the answer as to why its been seeming like its been slowed for a while. Looks like they just passed a transfer floor. And I imagine a beefy transfer floor at that.

Methinks this is gonna look pretty slick - and considerably lighter in color - when they start peeling off that protective film.

This is still going to need the spire though to look the part. Keeping my fingers crossed, but the crown lighting fiasco on One57 does not bode well for the spire on this one.

Maybe Barnett has a surprise. Not counting on it though, but who knows. I'm preparing to view this tower as is.

^Nice shot. It's getting huge. Why do/did this tower and 432 park use window protectors during construction? I've never seen another tower do that anywhere.
