That is just ridiculously unfair how nice that curved glass looks.

Vantage · #**803** Posted **Aug 14, 2015, 11:10 PM**

Damn, that curve is pristine.

That will be some BIG solar reflector - even more so than the Bow - because of more flat area facing the sun

Hey MrBigStuff.... With all that "sun reflection" going on, maybe the city will drop the "Shadowing" restrictions..... LOL!!

It really does, and the best part is that it looks better in person. Those corners are pretty damned cool.

And now for the glass on a gray, rainy day

I really wasn't a fan of the renderings of this tower.

Have to say, seeing it in person and those pics completely changes my mind.

Me too. In the renderings I thought the building was okay, but nothing special. It turn out to be a real beaut.

I wonder if this is a preview of what One Manhattan West in NYC will look like.

From the webcam it looks as though the steel has caught up to the core and they are taking a break in erecting the steel. Core must be due for its first setback soon I'd think...

Was thinking the same thing. if you can get a better discount by volume wouldn't you order the cladding from one manufacturer. I have a feeling that the glazing will be the same.
