NYC is booming at the moment, I still can't figure out how they will fill all these buildings for sure.

A supertall north of Midtown proper would be a dream come true.

Great pictures on this page.......
The thing with NYC is that if its not a supertall it barely makes an impact on the skyline. Those models and renderings above would be a nice addition if real....

^ Absolutely! You really need a 1000 footer to break the plateau of 700 - 900' tall towers.

Meanwhile, 107 West 57th Street is rumored to become a supertall. All we know for now, is that the tower's height will exceed 900 feet.

i think you need 1100 feet to break the plateau, One57 is barely noticeable skyline view.

I don't think heights are considered official until the building is completed, not just topped out. I am not exactly sure where I heard that but maybe someone else here will know more. Also, we have not had a ruling yet on the official height (will the mast that supports communication equipment be ruled a spire and architectural or not), so all we can say for sure is that it will soon be the tallest building in New York, for a minute at least.

You could say that it is currently one of the tallest structures in the Western Hemisphere, but the CN tower and a few TV masts have it beat. But yeah, nice to see it TO. I can't wait for 2 to start going up.

45 East 60th St. is now 824 ft, according to DOB filings. Meaning this one could very well end up 900 ft tall.

For those interested, there's a massive plan regarding the MSG / Penn Station redevopment (incl. potential 2000 footers). But since this thread does not include any visions, here's the link: http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...185034&page=15

- 225W57th: Gary Barnett is in talks with the Bank of China for a $1B loan.
- One57: cladding is speeding up. There's finally some movement.
- 1WTC: beacon to be lit up on July 4th!
- 432 PA: already 20 stories / 100m tall.
- 107W57th: to be completed by 2016. Height is 900ft+.
- Torre Verre and Girasole to start contruction pretty soon.
