Won't need to. This is the first I've mentioned it on here, but I'm likely moving to North-Jersey in may.

I have to say, lighting this building up from the inside really makes it come alive.

Last night I was my aunt's and she has a veiw of downtown from Central Park North. I saw the red light on top of the spire, so now there are three visable 1000 foot structures visable from that view!!! (Empire State Building, Conde Nast Spire and NYT Spire) I can't wait for it to be completed, it looks great.

^Pure beauty.
It's been a while since I've been seduced that way by a new skyscraper in NY. It's the real thing this time. No postmodern crap or fat, ugly box.

No doubt about it, the NY Times is a building best seen in the dark...
