What is the new tall building on the south side of E 23rd St, btw Madison & Park Ave South?
The black monolith that makes you hear the theme music from 2001 space odyssey?
That would be 1 Madison park.
Thanks Truth. When I was walkiong across Madison Square Park the other day and looked up, the building made me a little nervous. It looks like it could just tilt over or something. I saw another thin building on the north side, but I didn't get the same feeling from that building.
given the problems that development has had perhaps that's an appropriate illusion.
From the day it went up I said to my b/f that pencil thin tower of Babel is SO going to fall over and crush the Shake Shack one day. I just wanna be on record as saying so.
Kyle, my husband was less delicate in his analysis. he said I think that fucker's going down. and not a moment too soon.
I know the views are great up high, but calling this a corner to get zoning approval seems a remarkable reach to me. rising out of the subway, subway sandwich shop, hale and hearty, live bait, the empty chirping chicken storefront (how many years now?), radio shack, etc. WTF?
