Yeah, here more than any of the other locations on 57th, you need to get that high before the views open up more. Those other towers have it a little bit better with Central Park and its lowrises being directly to the north. But midtown is long overdue for a skyline growth spurt. The classic skyline has been coming back to us in recent years.
