8.5/10

J@ckal! · July 1st, 2004, 07:58 PM

I've seen this building while under construction.... was'nt this a Trump-project? Close to the Plaza, but more to the west? If so the top appartments cost up to a $ 25 million.....and then some!

Impressive when faced with the building, but now when I see it finished it's a bit dissapointing. Probably because the crown is'nt all that!

Love the city Though!!!!

Nah this isn't a Trump project, the Trump International Hotel & Tower however is right next door.

I don't like it too much. 5.5.

I love this twin tower, especially on a clear day when it's really shiny and beautiful. David Childs is a good architect. 8.5

One of the very good new buidlings in NY. 9/10

my current NYC favorite 10/10

September 2nd, 2004, 06:34 PM

I was in NY for a long stretch while they were building it. On the corner of Columbus and next to the Perk, I passed it daily. It is one of those buildings that always make you look twice. Especially when the sun bounces of it. Next time I am in NYC I will shoot a session of it. There is a gym in it which is so expensive that people could live of the contribution for a couple of years

I dont like how its so angular....too much for me...but it is better than anything where I live...7/10

10! One of my favorite complexes in NYC (besides Rockefellercenter).

SChristopher · October 22nd, 2004, 03:27 AM

AWFUL, ok at ground level. The towers are ghastly to me though 4/10

Monkey · October 31st, 2004, 01:56 AM

I must admit, I'm not a huge fan of these towers. It's their shape ... there's just something about them. From certain angles they seem a bit "thin" and awkward, I think I'd prefer them to be a bit bulkier, I can't quite explain it.

Anyway, I like the flat shiny facade, and they certainly soar well. Overall they're a positive addition to the skyline, but not amongst my favourites.

7/10

I like the trapezoidal towers, even if I don't know how many angles that is. I like the mirror effect of the glass and the multiple uses it has; four star hotel, corporate HQ, retail stores, condos and even CNN studios. 9/10
