^ Guess I should have gone to take a look tonight. I've been waiting to see that.

The views will be great, which is one of the reasons its so tall - the prices they can get for those units.

But if you're concerned about it being so much taller than the rest of the towers, stay tuned. I remember when One57 looked like a dominant tower over Central Park. But since the arrival of 432, its just another filler. When other towers, currently in various phases of "construction" get built, 432 will be just one of a group of towers dominating, its own dominance diminished.


A few more photos, some older than others...
