And think about this, we are getting even more supertalls on the Billionaires Boulevard to add more texture and density to the world's most exciting skyline!

Such a pure form. It's good that we as humans can't fly. Because I would just circle the building, looking down on it. It would be weird for the people inside.

Think about this: Just a few years ago, One57 was rising up to the challenge. Now 432 Park with more to come!

Awesome view from Queens!

Will they fake-light those last two floors of windows somehow? They will look odd at night with the last two 'floors' never seeming to be lit...

I don't think so (to either point). The tops of buildings aren't always lit.

Look at this photo for example.

Thanks so much! You're more than welcome to print it out and frame it. And if you are so inclined, here's a link to the super duper high res

A thought just occurred as I admire the work of 432 Park, all of this magnificent residential density can possibly extend towards the upper east side.

Just a thought.

Thanks! It is really stunning.

Dose not that cemetery holds the remains of the late William Poole? A.K.A. The real Bill the Butcher?

kznyc2k · #**7780** Posted **Jul 31, 2015, 6:53 PM**

^ No, he's buried in Green-Wood Cemetery down in southern Brooklyn. What you see there is Cavalry Cemetery in Queens as taken from the BQE.
