The developer David W. Levinson could have set for himself the simple task of commissioning a better-designed tower for 425 Park Avenue than the one that’s been there since 1957.

rem or zaha
The way things are designed these days and with well known architects in relationship to real estate ventures, developer guy is better off to speak for different clientele groups. Hire all of them to do their thing on top of each other. Add Robert Stern as well... Why not? More the merrier.. "The Clusterfuck Manor" that is...
Is anyone sick of these characters yet?
