Can I ask a quick question for you? Which floors where the hotel room is? Do they have a swimming pool or fitness room?

It looks amazing in the evening rendering (post #4382) but the 'almost' finished product looks a little off...

Swine-free zone
Luxe One57 bars bunnies, BBQs too



By LOIS WEISS
August 29, 2013


Quote:
If high rollers are thinking of moving into One57, the ultra-posh 90-story condo tower opposite Carnegie Hall, they’ll have to leave their pot-bellied pig behind. The plump porkers are just one of several types of pets barred from the Midtown high-rise, according to a 296-page public filing detailing the condo bylaws.

Gerbils, guinea pigs and bunnies are verboten as well — as are hens and ponies. Yes, break it to the kids gently. In fact, no more than two “orderly domestic” pets — that is, dogs, cats, caged birds and aquarium fish — will be allowed into the building, where units are reportedly in contract for as much as $45 million per floor.

And get this: a photograph of each pet must be given to the board before the non-human family member will be allowed into the building. “Nothing I heard is unusual except the photograph of the pet,” said lawyer Jay Neveloff, a partner with Kramer Levin, who writes many condo plans but was not involved in this one.

Among other restrictions: terraces at One57, with sweeping views of Central Park, cannot be used for barbecues, as bicycle storage, or to contain toys or baby carriages.

Thinking of decorating your windows with Christmas or Hanukkah lights? Well, forget it. Even curtains and blinds must be approved by the board, according to the filing.

The bylaws even bar the practicing of musical instruments or singing from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m., which, of course, does make it harder for talented residents to get to the One57’s prominent neighbor, Carnegie Hall. Phonographs, radios, televisions, computers and stereos also can’t be played loudly during that time, if it “disturbs or annoys” other occupants.

In other words, the building at 157 W. 57th St., now being completed by Gary Barnett’s Extell Development, is not exactly a party tower.

Also off-limits is massage “therapy,” any nude or semi-nude performances, or, heaven forbid, modeling.

And if a foreign government buys a unit, it can’t open any offices, embassies or a consulate.

DO you this means? No baby carriage, bicycle, BBQ allowed into the entire building? Why restrictions? I just don't understand it. There's no such things.

Well, no BBQ sounds like a good idea

These restrictions are obviously only for the terraces. I would assume almost all highrises in NYC have similar rules.

An old version of a tower proposal for the site:

I like the old version too. :-) Looks impressive.

They also had a 1,300 version of the existing tower planned back in 2007.

I like the built tower, but a 1,300 ft. version would have been even better. I think the problem is that this tower was built a bit too soon. If Barnett waited a year or so later, may have built the taller version, but the thing is that this tower was conceived in the height of the recession.

Now you see, in a stronger market, Barnett's 1,550 ft. 225 W57 and all the other planned towers.

And, per Wired NY, there are some big announcements of new towers planned for September. Hopefully some well-designed supertalls to balance out the skyline with the arrival of these new towers.

Yeah, once the summer is over, we're back to business.

I am beginning to wonder if the pattern-breaking, seemingly wrong-colored windows are intentional. The top of the building strays even further from the repeating pattern seen on lower floors.

I wonder if they ran out of the other colors at Home Depot, and they settled for the darker colors? (I think it was intentional...).

It's going to look even better when the glass is cleaned for the first time.
