This tower will still be better than old run down low-rise buildings that is replacing. Hopefully, your feelings will warm up once you see it growing.

Good thing lately lots of these 2 to 3 story shacks are being replaced in Manhattan.

That's a separate proposal.

Supposedly there's a different hotel going up on the 41st Street side of the block, and which will include that grocery store/tent site.

I think the store is already closed. They have a sign there with a new location in the neighborhood.

There is no activity yet. As Crawford said, tent is on different site.

I passed by this site not too long ago and noticed that the tent and other properties were still in place. It was closed down but there was no sign of demo or anything.

So there will be 2 hotels on this same block?? I would prefer if one developer acquires the whole section and builds one building.

Thank you for the updates Tubeworm.

What a shame considering this is in a good spot near Times Square. Oh well at least there will be some sunlight in that intersection.

I wish they made this tower higher. This is prime location.

Some info on the redesign:
------------------------------------

Quote:
The weird, funky design for 400 West 42nd Street (a.k.a 577 Ninth Avenue) was toast as soon as Handel Architects was replaced by SLCE Architects, but we didn't know exactly how much the redone design would stray from the original until now, as new renderings have been posted on the construction site fence. (Many thanks to the tipster who passed them along.) The new building appears to be slightly wider and shorter, but the overall scale looks about the same. It will rise to 25 stories and will include 35 condominium units average a little over 1,000 square feet each, as well as 527 tiny 250-square-foot hotel pods. The hotel is being developed, according to DOB permits, by the brothers Friedman, Bruce and Robert, who also developed The Lara.

all they did was take an ugly building of the 21st century and make it an ugly building out of the 20th century.

This should probably be moved to the UC section.
