Man...why do they need to tear down such a beautiful building. Arent there any more dilapidated buildings that can be brought down?

If they decide to go with high ceilings, this could be somewhere in the lines of 440-480 feet or so, maybe even 500 if we add mechanical or some sort of architectural elements. The small units, and half-floor/full floor units will probably mean this is super-luxury, so I would expect high ceilings similar to other developments. Which is not bad for the area. A solid filler if its close to my prediction. Following the trend of other developments from 26th to 31st street. While the structure its replacing is nice and historic, theres plenty of these types all over the place (in terms of style). Given the location, smaller developments that are not landmarked are bound to get redeveloped. Theres a couple of low rise structures in the 50's that will get developed overtime.

Looks like a height increase. :D https://cdn-standard.discourse.org/u...48d42bea41.png |
So this is now a 480 ft. building. Looks like it got slightly taller and skinnier.

I wonder what structures like this will become when the condo market falls apart? I'm almost positive that supply is outpacing demand in a big way, and we'll be left with dozens of empty buildings in a decade. Office conversions, maybe?
|
This design would of been a good choice for 262 5th Avenue (supertall).
|
Rather a disappointment for Adjmi.

Conversions or renovations are always happening.
Warehouses ---> Condo/rentals/office Office -----> condo/rental Condos you don't see that many. I'm sure some small office like conversions, for smaller/mom and pop businesses, but you won't be seeing top companies move into some brownstones. A lot of conversions for city office towers to condo towers going on. |

Everyone must or should realize it's only a niche market for the ultra wealthy at the moment. Not saying it's bad, but unless you can make them more affordable sometime soon, or unless anyone out there becomes a billionaire all of a sudden (allow us to be somewhat skeptical about that), demand for this kind of products is likely to decrease at some point locally. I mean, Manhattan proper got a big share of it lately. That said, I don't think this market would ever literally collapse either. This standard of living within a city center is too desirable to fail on the long run. |
Well obviously the height estimate is wrong, or the renderings are wrong.
It looks at least 700 ft. in the renderings, but the building was supposed to be 480 ft. So I'm guessing either A. The developer purchased additional air rights or B. The rendering is just ridiculously wrong. |

I would hardly call this a "billiinaire" tower. |
