@BangMaster96 5 лет назад

Can't believe most of the skyscrapers in New York are close to 100 years old, even the subway system is more than a 100 years old, and all of the infrastructure is still being used today in 21st century. You have to give props to the Engineers who designed and constructed the city more than 100 years ago, their legacy is still in function today. But, New York does need a massive upgrade, in fact, most cities in America have outdated infrastructure, compared to Dubai, Singapore, Tokyo, etc.., American cities do not have have the modern edge that those cities have.

@fatoeki 5 лет назад

Dubai's layout is garbage. They went way to fast with expanding and just threw al the high rise next to the highway that runs literally through the city for quick accessibility. No one walks. There's no culture.

@15725867905 5 лет назад

100% agreed. I always loved seeing the skyline as a kid (which included the twin towers), but now the skyline is nowhere near the same. I see it every morning and I’m shocked by how much has changed even in the last 5 years. While I’m sure I’ll grow accustom to it, it’s strange walking in the city now since the newer construction has made it feel less “authentic”... it’s difficult to explain but I’m happy to see that there are updated facilities and a renewed sense of growth following 9/11. It’s true that the city never sleeps but who would’ve guessed it would be getting such a massive growth spurt!

Not sure anyone I know there can afford their own home. A common arrangement seemed to be rented rooms in Brooklyn. In that respect it's the same as many other cities. Depends on what you're looking for.

While it's vastly beyond my paygrade, 111W57 has my complete approval, I'm so sick of skyscrabers just being giant glass greenhouses, I genuinely would prefer to look at buildings in a more classical style.

@georgesealy4706 5 лет назад

Yeah, but I have to think that baby is going to sway, at least some. I worked in NYC for a long time. It gets very windy as it sweeps across the NJ meadowlands and Hudson River. I don't think I would enjoy being on the top floors of 111W57 no matter how elegant the living is. You gotta feel it move every once in a while.

@op4000exe 5 лет назад

@@georgesealy4706 I personally have no idea, I will admit it looks a bit too thin, but honestly I've never been to NYC, and propably never will. I'd just personally like some more asthetically pleasing skyscrabers, that go well with more being present. Most skyscrabers are beautiful if they're on their own, but almost any city in which a skyscraber is built, will be a city with more being built, so if the ruling system of the city set certain requirements for similarities (not identical buildings, just superficial similarities, so they don't seem to come from completely different places), I'd imagine it'd make the city more beautiful over all.

@paullewis2413 5 лет назад

Yeah most new skyscrapers in NYC are glass and steel that could be anywhere. NYC had its own distinctive style back in the 20's and 30's seems it's only RAMSA who design modern 'scrapers clad in masonry and which have a more NYC identity.

Man that Central Park Tower is truly a breathtaking thing. The way it cantilevers like that and is still strong enough to meet all the safety standards... like damn. In the early 30's when Le Corbusier first came to New York, he remarked that the buildings weren't tall enough, well I wonder what he'd say now.

@DavidSaintloth 5 лет назад

111 w57 is a masterpiece in architecture....you have to go see it if your a scraperhead. It's already ridiculously thin laterally and then as it rises it needles out as it goes up...just looks like madness. Love it..
