      @@tomknox7425 I personally don't agree though you may be right, I would naturally miss it if we moved on from the current style I think. Things aren't just the same I think. However, Brutalist architecture from the 60s/70's still looks somewhat depressing to me and hasn't gained any charm so why should I think a glass tower that looks somewhat soulless to me would?

      Yes, this is possible. Normally these rights are sold by historical buildings, which could, theoretically, be bigger but won't actually be expanded. By doing so, a smaller building converts its unused air space into money.

    Ever since I moved to America one thing I've Loved here are the super amazing tall buildings and how cool they look. New York is just one of the most beautiful places for buildings that I've ever seen. I live in LA and we have only one group of buildings pretty much. But New York and these types of new buildings are so slender and tall I just so incredible and just watching the progress of how they're built and the information about it that you guys present just makes my day.

    Incredible building. I wasn't too fond of it when I first saw renders, but seeing it in real life nearly complete, I think it fits right in. It's very beautiful, and they built it so fast!

    Very informative video -- NYC had a prolonged period where not much changed in the skyline, but the buildings going up and recently completed in the midtown region have hugely changed the look of the city. Looking south from Central Park it's impossible to miss these new additions.
