WOW! These towers really will lift this side of the skyline upwards! :O

Fantastic render

Could anyone do a quick edit of putting a 1,100ft tall massing model on this site so that we can get a sense of what the scale would be?

Sounds fantastic though! would be great if this does happen!

Slightly off topic, but why is this called 'affordable housing' when it's mostly only affordable to the top 1%?

Kanto will be happy with this so far!
I liked the plans with the twin towers joined by the roof, but i thought it was a bit too 'massive', although I hope this design takes aspects from it such as the angles

^^Mind having the Hudson Yards and surroundings proposals to that to see how it will look with the whole of that strip?

 

[iamtheSTIG]

Some of the largest buildings in the world are only a few floors high!
But it'll be good to have a supertall luxury residential tower with some 'bulk' to an extent (judging from the massing models)
This will be one of the buildings which will give a flowing transition from the Hudson Yards to Midtown from a skyline point of view, rather than the Hudson Yards being cut off as such

The floors will be 106, but I know that you will not correct the title........

If you're so bothered just post a request in the status/detail changing thread
That's thread gets checked by the correct mods regularly!

But its good to see this progressing!

Also Lex, what is Extell building there?
