^^^^

If a 100 SSP forumers could all pitch in $177,500 , then we could all buy the cheaper unit and share it.

We could also find a way to have 100 people live in 3,709 sq ft or 37.09 sq ft per person. Granted it might be a sausage fest, but at least we would have some nice views.

Just mention the WTC radome and it would be chaos.

We can really see the complexity of the tower in the shot above. Its rising slowly, but the complexity makes it all the more better. Some nice HDR in that shot. Makes it look like GTA4 with the ENB graphics mod.

If Steinway even shows for the match.

Speaking of, the last progress shots like a 6 weeks and today showed virtually no rogress. Hope they get serious about putting my favorite supertall up.

Why wouldn't it? It has as much chance being built as any of the others.

Construction Update: 56 Leonard



Quote:
56 Leonard is racing upwards once more, after the tower passed a mechanical level earlier this month. The skyscraper is nearly at the point where ceiling heights see a dramatic increase, and when those floors begin, the structure’s apparent height will soar even faster, topping-out by early next year.
Currently, the building stands 36 floors and approximately 500 feet above the streets below, roughly 2/3rds of the way to its final height of 821 feet and 60 stories. Conveniently, floor numbers have recently been posted to the side of the external elevator shaft.


Quote:
Glass is also beginning to cover more of the building, and the simplicity of the middle floors is now evident; the windows follow a simple rectangular envelope above the cantilevered levels of the lower base, with the mass broken up by dozens upon dozens of cast-concrete balconies. The overall effect becomes more impressive considering the skyscraper’s scale, and it is increasingly subject to gawking from New Yorkers and tourists alike.

This building is crazy! Look how far that room juts out from the side. The future has arrived!

As opposed to the term "funky fresh" ironically.
