Same. This north view reminds me of a glassy but unfinished Met Life North Building (11 Madison) in NYC; this massive base that looks like it had a 700' tower cut from it, sitting incomplete for eternity. The lot isn't that big in reality, but something about the renders makes the scale feel strange.

I hear this criticism but at the same time, if it comes out as depicted in the renders, it will be by far the best individual lab in CC.

In a strange way, it reminds me of the chopped down 25 Madison Ave (should have been taller):

It really only looks good from high angles from which nobody will ever see it.

Seems like a very thick mat.

Looking great. I like how it really fills out the site and also that it’s going to connect to the overpass sidewalk.

And just like that - a whole new building exists!

Great angle to show how much this encloses everything!

This one is contributing? to the skyline from all over.

Today (6/13). Despite being short, this one has a surprisingly pleasing shape to me. Also, glazing seems to be of high quality.
