Gosh did that trend ever even get off the ground in NYC? About the only thing I actually miss about the midwest is how far, far superior their grocery stores are. You can get ANYTHING at them and...

On the bright side, it makes the Metrotech buildings look good by comparison.

I'm curious what is, in anyone's mind, the compelling reason to rewrite the laws to allow Walentas to build higher than the area is zoned?

As things are, there's a nice stair-stepping of...

I just took a perusal of this area today too. The Toren is really very striking in real life. It has a sexiness that isn't fully conveyed, even as nice as it looks in renderings and photos.

Seriously, Brooklyn's blazing to new heights with that ugly thing? That will be visible to everyone in Manhattan? What an embarrassment. I hope it looks better than the rendering.

Ooop, I think I have to correct myself, upon further digging it appears this lot is listed as part of the Hudson Yard's property acquisition list for the greenway. The lot is the pink square that...

Forgive my laziness please, but which of the proposed towers is slated for the Toys R Us site? I'm a little confused on what's going where.

A breathtaking 13-foot slide. A wading area with spray jets and running water. Swings set among meandering paths and grassy knolls.

These are just some of the fun-filled features Brooklyn kids can...

yes, thanks for doing this. I think it's great these magnificent buildings will live on at least virtually. You've done the public record a great mitzvah and I'm sure history will thank you.

Searched these boards and Google news and found nothing. Has anyone heard of this? I was speaking with a business owner on Joralemon st today and she told me their building was scheduled for...
