This will be their one chance at building a signature tower from the ground up:

They want a tower that will mark it's presence strongly on the skyline, something becoming harder to do. Since there is little we know about what exactly the tower will look like, we just have to go with their words on this one. It's also possible some residential or hotel space could be thrown on top. With the City's hand in this, everything is possible.

This is the third new office tower in the Park Ave/Grand Central district to keep an eye on.
