In the future: Inside the world’s THICCEST skycraper in the world
Bruh😂
LOL
Haha
XD FACTS
Now I would rather see this
You'll be surprised how many rich people take subway
yea its just faster in NYC to take the subway
They're not from NY, otherwise he would have said "WEST" 57th Street as billionaire's row, the same as EAST 64th Street's billionaire's row (between 5th & Madison). And yes, everyone takes the subway in NY. Even NYC's billionaire Mayor Bloomberg would always take the subway.
Hope they are safe and not attacked by people
@@montyi8 NY is a very safe large city.
Monty Saudi and Russian oligarchs have bought condos in these. It’s all blood money
I'm gonna buy the entire building for my summer home.
And pliz don't forget to invite me..
Ok peasant ✌️
In your dreams😂
I don’t sell it
You can buy the next one
@@geetalikalita cant take a joke can ya
This video is all over the place talking about Steinway but showing Nordstrom, 0ne57, 432 Park Avenue.. I believe they even threw in a pic of Library tower in L.A.
Yeah, the video editor needs to be taught how edit !
Yes, they definitely showed the skyline of LA when discussing "competing towers." In addition, they show architects reviewing plans, but the plans are for Jean Nouvel's 53 W53rd St Tower.
LMFAOO I wouldn't doubt
I thought too that it was not always the same bldg in the video
Also showed Central Park Tower
4:25 LA made a quick appearance in a video about New York! 😂
E Johnson lol I live in Los Angeles and we need more sky scrapers it’s just we have more earthquakes than New York so we gotta be careful
I've spent 3 weeks in NYC just as a visitor..subway is the way to go! A limo would move you around 1 block every 5 minutes on a good day.
You're lucky bro
That's probably the first building a kaiju monster would destroy
Lol you saitama and dio mixed together and also EMERALD SPLASH
After 9/11, hurricane storms, etc.. there is no way I could comfortablely sleep in a building that tall. No way
For me I’m not as much worried about hurricanes because none have knocked buildings that y’all but 9/11 is the reason why I’m scared at times when I go on y’all buildings
What about earthquake?
I spent an earthquake in a relatively short building. I was only in the 9th floor and it wasn't a huge earthquake. However, the swaying could be felt a lot more, we had nausea, and every rumble and noise gave me little confidence on high rise buildings. I'm sure I would've been more calm and composed in the ground floor.
I later found out that only houses fell down, and that supposedly high rise buildings were safer. I guess the main issue is my fear of heights!
Monty earthquakes don’t really happen in New York. The only time I remember was when the 2012 Japanese earthquake happened and the ground just shook a little but no damage
Not to mention that he 700 tonne pendulum dangling above you...
Throughout this video it has been said that the architects designed the buildings structure.
Please try to understand that architects have absolutely nothing to do with a buildings structural design .
All design related to earthquake, wind loading, foundations etc is done by civil/structural engineers NOT architects.
Architects only design the layout and general shape of the building.
Please give credit to engineers for what is actually the most difficult part of designing a skyscraper
Eh. Engineers get the money, architects get the credit. Seems fair to me
Nah!
Architects and engineers work collaboratively to come to a structural solution that works with the architectural design.
Don't down play the architects role as just designing "the layout and general shape of the building". That's naive and uninformed.
Engineers are equally as important but don't be salty and reduce the architects role.
I don't understand why people would want to live that high up. What happens if there's a fire at 3am on the 20th floor and you're on the 67th? You're pretty much dead if the fire spreads to the staircase. Ever heard the 911 calls on 9/11 from people on high floors? That would make you think twice about living high up, it's scary af!
Who is here to read comments.
Haha no kidding
No I just opened the comments to to watch another video.
Not me...I came here to add to the comments.
I am. :-)
Me
That building is a total eyesore. It spoils the Central Park skyline. Give me a classic Art Deco building or brownstone any day!
blind
how does this channel have 14 million subscribers, its showing clips of lower Manhattan when talking about midtown and randomly flashes to downtown LA 4:25
all this channel does is show random stock and other footage and put a watermark distortion over it
The B1M has far better videos on these buildings
Yea I live by the Us Bank Tower and the Gas Tower in LA...that was weird.
hahaha
This!
I love The B1M. Thought I give this channel a try, but I guess it’s not my taste.
Also the "sunset" at 00:30 is actually a sunrise reverted, since you're overviewing Central Park here, so facing the East. lmao
This channel also steals footage from the B1M
I rather live closer to the ground with actual backyard space. In the event of an emergency, I’m closer to the hospital too.
You live in scarcity
Ima be laughing at you from the chopper while I get life flighted to the ER poor boy 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
They would fly you out by helicopter 🚁. Passing traffic.
Jeffrey Fider you right they probably will 😂
I have a view of this building from my windows. It's really impressive. The view from the sidewalk across the street from it, as well as the other super tall new building down the street, gives me a little vertigo. We were going to a concert at Carnegie Hall, before things shut down, and we both had the same reaction. You almost can't bend your neck far enough back to look all the way up there. It's pretty cool. We live in a highrise now. We have friends that live on the 55th floor in a building in that neighborhood. Where else but Manhattan can you live that high up and have an obstructed view. I love the city, covid-19 won't scare me away. I'll be the last to leave. It's awesome here. There's no place like it, not even close.

@@squidthekid955 No, I'm in my 60s , bought real estate when it was still cheap, but I can't afford to retire here, will move south.
Then just like that, everyone is leaving NY
Everyone is leaving the south.
@@METALFACEDOOMXXXX Biloxi, MS is the new New York.
@@METALFACEDOOMXXXX People are fleeing to the south actually.
@@ShellymanStudios actually they're not you should do more research. Most people are leaving the south because of covid actually they were leaving before then. There's a reason NY has 20 million people and Georgia has 9.🤭 I lived in the south it's slow boring and full of racist. Most people I've seen said they hated it and left. These are facts not your misguided delusions.
Why are ppl even moving to Atlanta anyway it’s not special it’s not and good city and their are bad driver everywhere and the entire south is boring ugh 😒 can’t wait to leave
That's wider than our building though.😂
is it a skyscraper?
😂😂😂🤭
I have family that lives near New York City so I visit them every year or so and each time I go there to the city I seem to see some new giant building that wasn’t there last time.
I don’t see the point in living in a building that tall when we have storms, earthquakes and a post 9/11 world during an economic downturn.
this look like their advertising the Titanic 🤔
Subbed to Richest. Compared to many other luxury channels, you at least do diligence in showing your sourced material, along with a pleasant voice and great footage. So many channels out there may have good footage but they pull it from other channels without any thought or respect. You're also far more accurate with the details (at least in this video that I've seen) than other luxury ones.
I am a native New Yorker and didn’t even know about these beautiful structures.
Proportionally more movies take place in NYC and it’s also ‘destroyed’ more than any other
Who's thinking man I should have commented that
DentinDev man I shoulda commented that
not that i don't trust the engineers but i wouldn't live on any skyscraper let alone the skinniest skyscraper
Even if it were free I wouldn't live there, it looks awesome ofc. Unlike you I DO not trust the engineers....
Jahn Berrios how can u not trust the engineers, they are so smart i think they know what they are doing buddy
Jahn Berrios this building would not have been permitted to build by the city If it didn’t meet safety qualifications
Damarco R. Said the guys who built the titanic...
NaySay Network in 1911...
The building needs to hit the gym more eat more and I think it has some potential.
I’m getting anxious 😟 just at watching those skyscrapers!
Now i found myself dreaming to living in new york, Specifically that building! I am so fascinated
one day inshallah one day i will buy one of these apartments for my mother
she is very thing to me and just thinking about it that how much proud she would feel of my success and hard work when i will be able to afford this kind on apartments gives me so much happiness
You're a Lannister can you not just borrow from the Iron bank of Braavos?
No u won’t❤️😉
inshallah
That’s the Dream Jaime. May Allah make it easy for us and my our dreams come true 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Parents they often flip the script and refuse to move. Sending my best that, that won't be the case. LOL
Whats sad is most of the people that own them will have many other properties and boats so will hardly ever live in them while others people d=have to live on the sidewalks in the USA :(
I’ll be honest even if I bought a $50m penthouse I’ll still ride the subway on the daily basis...
your thoughts on that might change if you actually had a 50 m penthouse.
Yes
The Tallest ( 1776’) building in the West Hemisphere is called One World Trade Center....not that other silly moniker!
When I hear that I cringe as a boomer born and raised in nyc
Thats why it stated tallest residential building, not commercial
It said specifically tallest residential building in the world.
Also Central Park Towers roof sits way higher than One World Trade Centers'
Everyone remotely familiar with construction agrees OWTC' spire is just cheating in a dick-measuring contest.
I would never live there, or anywhere in a big city. Some see a tall building, I see a disaster waiting to happen. The taller ot is, the more devastation if it falls. Remember the trade centers? They just made a bigger target.
Even if i could easily afford to live in this building i wouldnt be able to sleep at night thinking that it might just tumble over and come crashing down at the bottom. Nope No way Hell No
The rich already abandon NYC.
Ain't nobody abandon shit you turd
True
Your mother already abandoned you country inbred
Its lovely , air rights , you learn something new every day , those come all fully furnished I see
Absolutely gorgeous
😍 penthouse Central Park views 😍
5000$ per foot, and I got a Walmart add halfway through...FU TH-cam
Imagine if that explosion that hit Beirut was in New York harbor. That building would be dust or a very least you would be blown right through it.
For a billionaire this is regarded as cheap when they by yacht’s 3x the amount
For a billionaire everything is cheap.
Why does America keep going up when they have that huge country, I think it's awful, thousands of people living on top of each other,
The fact is that there are good billionaires and there are bad billionaires.
Beautiful building still sad about our other sky buildings that we lost 😥
Are you talking about the Trade Center?
Yes they didn’t mention them in their intro but I thought of it anyway. 😭😭
HEY UH, YOU CAN’T LAND THAT PLANE??? OK SO, DO YOU SEE THAT TOWER OVER THERE
GL0J0 what movie was that😇
@@davoid96 yes
8:21 Living in the clouds ... what a dream. Makes me think of Altered Carbon, where the rich live in supertall skyscrapers above the coulds where it's always sunny
If i have that money,
I will live in a cabin in the woods.
Just checked my back pocket for that spare 50 million.........DAMN, Guess I won't be moving in anytime soon. Great engineering though.
Actually watching this in this exact building
I know 99% of people won't see this,
but to the 1% have a blessed day😊
Wow first the 1% take all the money and now they’re taking all the blessings. Unbelievable
I did!!!!!
STUNNING
I love your videos
No I would not. 1. Not a big fan of heights. 2. If I was that rich I would rather build a hospital where people can use and get cured from their illness. 3. I can't live without my subway, conveniencese. 4. Wouldn't not buy such a big apartment just for myself, rather invest or save the money. 5. Too luxury for me. 6. The more luxury u get the lazier u will get. 7. Would rather help other people less fortunate than me.
Nice New York beautiful place ❤
This is absolutely ridiculous. These are the people who should be helping those with less. Not necessarily poor. The could buy up properties and renovate them to rent/sell to lower-middle class.
billionaires row....
Looking very very nice.
elevators opening right into your apt is the dumbest idea ever
Even if I could afford it, I’d still chose a cabin in the mountains. All that cold as ice steel and glass? Not for me!
Nice building idol
I am the only one who would never want to live in a sky high death trap?
It should be illegal.
Billionaire or not ain't no way I'm paying that much
Amazing building... And prices too! 🤣🤣😜
"The Richest" thank you for inspiring me to start my own youtube channel🙏
I would definitely buy a unit in this building!
What's funny is that I love right down the street from that building
The money spent on these apartments doesn't go to waste. Thousands of skilled craftsmen made a ton of money building all of it.
Very interesting video. Can you please be modern and indicate heights in meter?
In my country we only have two feet, we use them to walk...
In America we use feet and yards. The Internet will give you a quick conversion ,I use it all the time to convert meters to feet
I would live there it seems nice
50 million for the two story penthouse is a bargain. 432 park ave sold theirs for close to a 100 million for a single floor
Bootiful
FINALLY!!! A high-rise that is actually worth the asking price!
OMG, the aerial views makes my stomach weak. I wouldn’t want to live in the sky.😏
I think it would be helpful to also talk about the monthly homeowner dues!
I'm looking into it and a house in Sands Point or Old Westbury Long Island...
While impressive and sometimes even beautiful, the hubris and greed behind them disgust me. So glad I don't live in the city.
You had me until your second sentence.
2020 BE LIKE: OOOOHHHH, SAVE THAT FOR DECEMBER!!!!!
😂😂😂😂 JK
Wow
I do buy.the view is insane but 432 park ave looks more Chic for me.
I'd be afraid to live there. I get vertigo just looking at the building.
Nice
I love being from New York
Rats infested city😂😂😂😂 Im not American but NYC is overrated
4:25 is my office in Downtown Los Angeles, 2 California Plaza 🤦🏻♀️
The skyscraper is awesome&bizarre
To the person reading this : I hope you guys are ok and I hope you guys are safe during these really hard times I wish nothing but love and positivity godbles🙏🏾 you guys 💘
It is praying hands XD it’s not a high five this is a high five emoji 🙌
For $50 Million I should be able to enter the subway directly from my penthouse living room.
These structures always make me recall the horrors of 9-11!
Scenario :
You bought a penthouse on 47th floor . One day theres a fire in one of the floors. Can't use elevator .Do you :
A) take the stairs down until your legs get cramped
B) go up to helipad . Hoping for air rescue
C) just stay in your penthouse . Knowing you're spouse will get money from life insurance
Helipad is probably the safest
@@finnadekeditz and non-existant in this building so...
The very first skinniest skyscraper. Whoa!
Wow.
Had I the money, I'd live there! But no way would it be my only residence. Swiss Family Robinson (the book, not the movie) had a profound influence on me. Even in my poverty I own five separate places. One is a forested hilltop 3000' higher than the penthouse of 111 W. 57th.
This prices are outrageous
I live in NYC and I HATE this building. It,breaks up the skyline in such a shitty way.
I'd buy a nice 1200-1400 2 bedroom condo about 15 stories up in a 25 story building ($100k for furnishings), with a good-not great-view in the City. With the spare change, I'd buy a small condo next to a golf course in a gated community north of Cape Canavarel Of course, I'd also buy the one bedroom (with bunk beds), large kitchen, and two car garage, near a Rocky Mtn Ski Town. Then, too, I'd buy a 15 year old well kept Nordhavn 60 motor yacht and moor it somewhere in the Puget Sound. And with the money left over, I'd buy approx five thousand ounces of gold. Reality is, I'm lucky to have low house payments on a house with 2 small bathroom without ventilator fans.
The big question: How long does it take that it will crash.
What?
Architects are insane to build something like this.
Only space for 9 pianos? Darn it...I have 10. Will have to keep looking, for my next apartment. This one just won’t do.
Anybody know what background music it is at 3:00 ?
Makes me feel Dizzy
Anybody know what the monthly condo fees are?
Yes
Unimpeded? Some views show the back side of the Essex House sign (8:15). That's hardly worth it.
Cool
