Units on the upper floors will have 360-degree views of the Hudson River, the Upper West Side, Central Park, and the nearby supertalls of Billionaires’ Row. YIMBY previously checked out the views from one of the high floors at sunset with the golden hour light catching the glass, concrete, and terracotta exteriors of these soaring slender skyscrapers.

  1. Looks good David, thanks Michael youngs

  2. Looking great, Vetterstone is supplying our Silver Shadow limestone at the entrance. FYI, the same stone is on 220 CPS. I enjoy YIMBY everyday! Best regards, Chris

  3. Funny when you realize the ‘supertalls’ on 57th are more than twice the height.
