The battle for the soul of New York—or at least for its skyline—was over before it even really began. The City Council today approved 15 Penn Plaza, the Pelli Clarke Pelli-designed 1,200-foot tower that will now rival the Empire State Building on the skyline. From Jersey. If it ever gets built.

thank god, the skyline is not a sacred landscape frozen in time.
“As it is, we’re not on par with some of our competitors, say London or Hong Kong."
and with this, you still won't be.
hopefully this will be good news for Nouvel's proposed moma tower as well...
agreed. no one tower has monopoly on nyc skyline. i'm more outraged at vornado person's ridiculous response to the question about mwbe involvement.
