I can't wait until we start seeing the actual skin on the buildng. Most people on the street probably think it's just another odinary skyscraper going up. It won't be long before it becomes apparent that it isn't.

That is true. I get strange looks from other people whenever I stop and admire or take photos of it. They don't know why anyone would be so interested in, what is to them, just another construction project.

The same thing happens to me too, but they'll be on the bandwagon eventually, (seems everyone in that area, especially on the bridge has a camera also).

Those are the foreground buildings in my photos. Beekman Place is going to tower over the park there, I didn't realize it was going to be that big.
If not for the new WTC and 30 Park Place, this would be the tallest building constructed Downtown since the original WTC was constructed back in the early 70's. But this has to be in the most prominent location because of the lack of anything as tall in the immediate area.

^Does Pace ever plan on doing anything to replace their dumpy buildings?
It's funny you say that. I go there and I can tell you that the facade you see is the facade that'll remain for some time to come, if not forever. The interior as well is stuck in the time period that it was constructed in. It's a great school, but the facilities are indeed very dated and in need of some form of face-lift.

Dang, didn't realize that there was this much progress on this one already. I am curious to see the way this one is going to end up--it could be a real stunner.
wow it's already a good 400 feet high now and I imagine if anything, that new floors are gonna be added at an even quicker pace as it gets higher.
It wasn't that long ago that people were wondering if this one would rise at all. But it's very typical of New York skyscraper construction. The foundation seemingly takes a year or more, and then the tower itself is up overnight.

Nice building, still can't imagine who would want to live in that neighborhood. I've got a friend that lives around Wall Street and hates it.

Your friend should probably move. There are always people who will live somewhere other people hate. It's a matter of personal preference. For instance, some things that would be a deal breaker for some, could be a must have for others.
