Good pics and they really show that if you look at this building in isolation it looks pretty good HOWEVER if you see it more in its context you can see (as has been noted by many and is seen in other pics just up this thread) that it is far too close to the building immediately south of it (esp.the podium). (And before someone complains, I too would have liked at least some colour!)

I know it is a long way from occupation, but seeing the first floor glass brings up the question about tenets. Anybody know who might occupy that space?
 
And speaking of tenants, the renders show a park on the site of that parking lot adjacent to the retail frontages. Is that still the plan? If so, at what stage would that be built here?
 
I love a lot of aA's work (and think they're regularly unfairly trashed on this forum), but they really do need to learn about grade treatments other than plain, flat curtainwall.
 
It's not nearly as good as Pier 27's first phases, but it's one of those projects where you can only make a final assessment once the balconies go up.
