With an empty lot next door this is a much easier method as there's space to slope the excavation.

By my count that yellow stretch would fit a minimum of 16 towers. Height would not be an issue at any point of this stretch and actually a benefit as higher units receive more separation from the CP tracks below. Using the 554 unit count from a West Village tower we could have at least 8900...

Instantly hit with an operatic "SPAAAAAAANDDDDRRRELLLLLLLLLLLL!"

It's a building.

What are the total costs per rezoning that equate the fee?

That doesn't make sense.

I'm amazed it's gotten this far. Does the City really want to forgo all those land use re-designation fees?

Looks good, but the city sure has screwed the future of a lot of our main streets.

Who was in charge of the planning, parcel distribution, and architectural control in the University District?

They should just keep going with the brick and when questioned just say “Oh? We didn’t think this ugly grey stuff was the actual finished material.”

With today’s technology surely they could have put in the worlds longest fake water fountain.

Alright alright, the street level looks decent. Just don't look up.

Three years but pretty sure you can get an extension.

Aging vinyl means vehemence.

So many ugly buildings in that part of downtown. At least it doesn't look out of place.

These buildings always look better once there's window blind randomness.

Disgusting design! Surely they could have given us some ez-trim, spandrel, some random rectangles, vinyl plank, alucobond, aluminum fins, and a big heavy stucco parapet cornice!

So creative. Went to Vegas they did.

I like it. I give this a solid 9 wood slats out of 10.

Are there any still rendering images? Edit: And there they are! Thanks
