gotta admit, it would be fun to watch a plane hit that

Oh my the (((post-modernists))) are at it again and are ruining the once glorious skyline of NY, which in its glory days was the result of virtuous WASP culture.

here's the mecca one from before

top kek for going full Vegas casino at their own holy site

God fucking damn it, stop ruining the skyline you fucks.

How large is that mecca place tower? That cube is pretty big in comparison to people.

oh yeah and that new boxy park avenue building aint helping things either ffs

...

fucking huge, its like the third tallest building in the world right now

the long hand on that clock must be 50 feet long
there's fucking 4 of them up there. Christ, that building is mindblowing.

Yeah 432 Park Avenue. Funny part is the view from the apartments there are made nicer by the fact that you can't see the building itself. Skyscrapers like in pic related look so much more aesthetic.

...

the bend apartmment building is just render art to showcase a realistic elevator system that can be applied elsewhere

A FUCKING PAPERCLIP

>filename

Nice

we need to go back to gothic style architecture.

What is that bottom left picture showing? That looks incredibly small, whatever it is, in comparison to everything else.

This is brilliant
Loving how this country is starting to think big again

Looks great. Why are rural and suburban retards upset about this?

fug :DDD

>You will never have a giant paperclip on your city's skyline

>Buy the lots on both sides of this.
>Make circular buildings on either sides

Who wants to spend millions with me to make the worlds largest dick out of this shitty design

there's a couple rooms in the top of the crescent. an apartment or office I think

...

Probably wouldn't be my first choice in housing given the fact that it's in Saudi Arabia and that the 9/11 hijackers were supposedly from there, but it isn't my circus and it's not my monkeys

kek, what are you talking about fool. you need to be muslim to even enter mecca

and likely be a billionaire or saudi royalty to even get to the top of that building

It looks like one of those dyson fans

Try billions muchacho

>tfw you stay on vent

fpbp

What, do they want to play cricket with planes in New York city?

wtf are u talking about this building will be the new benchmark of architecture, expect a lot more bent buildings around the world.

ITS SO FUCKING GAY AND UGLY. WHY

LITTERALLY THERE SHOULD BE SOME WAY TO VOTE A SHITTY REALESTATE PROJECT DOWN.

LOOK AT THE SAND NIGGERS. ATLEAST THEY CAN CRAZY FANCY SHIT.

PUTTING TONS OF SUPER TALL SHIT TIER. FUCK I HATE WORLD TRADE CENTER JEW OR WHATEVER THEY BUILT.. ITS HIDEOUS.. AND FUCKING JEWS KNOCKED DOWN THE TOWERS..

my bad caps. basic looking.. fucking gay. what a disgrace

If someone flies a plane into that building is it a double kill?

You don't fucking get it. This is a brilliant idea.
>be terrorist
>hijack plane
>try to crash into building
>end up flying right through it, harmlessly into some projects burning dindus with jet fuel

>People will praise this

its a dick waving war. my shits bigger than yours, but don't mind me its basic block design. its super boring, its not creating energy somewhow, and before you call me a green energy fag. go downtown in your city. and walk around. theres mega wind coming through. you could harness that shit into ducts and have vertical turbine windmills powering shit..

but from an architecture stand point.. this shit is fucking ugly.

just because its super tall or super big.. doesn't mean shit. the pyramids 1 up'd you fags 2000 years ago. lets do some fancy intelligent looking shit.. half that fucking building will be empty.. so make it smaller and charge more for rent.. its a win win.

Checked. This is literally the best way to counter another 9/11.

someone tweet trump. he'll call it ugly as fuck

how.. i could knock it down with my drone.. it looks like a weak ass point guard in high school from an all white school. HORRIBLE. LOW ENERGY.

would you honestly brag about owning a place in this building below the curve portion? thats the only selling point..

idk i like it. Not the most beautiful design but a cool dangerous gimmick having it so tall with a bend at the top.
Would visit and fear for my life/10.

I don't mind the design at a fundamental level, but the building would be more aesthetic and functional if there were some open-air cross-bridges with things like gardens and restaurants on them. Imagine having to go from one half of the building to the other. You would either have to walk across the street or go up whatever fucked up elevator that will make for that thing.

Thats not a building its a transdimensional vortex generator that will allow moloch to emerge!!!

i know right.. the new WTC looks cool and all. but it doesnt belong to NYC skyline.

>Hijacked plane heads for the tower
>Achmed get confused and flies through it
>Surprise netting drops down
>Terrorists are caught
>People saved
>Trump get's re-elected (it was his plan all along)

czeched and kek'd

Ugly and apparently doesn't work well as a museum because it doesn't have enough light.

if they plan to build more buildings.. so it looks like a middle finger to the world..

i'll buy bonds in it.

i'm thinkin two sphere building at the bottom

Literally Minas Morgul tier with those green lights

...

niggers, sand or otherwise, have no taste

>hey we have a pretty bad homeless problem as well as gang activity

>Just fuck my shit up senpai

God I hate NY, need to get out

Holy fucking shit, tasteless motherfuckers. Is the urge to be noticed that big in the muslim world? Is the lack of self esteem some kind of pillar of their religion? That shit is ungly and impractical.

I think it looks kinda cool, like a gateway to central park. They should have an identical skyscraper on the other side.

Pic related has already been built

Anything Chump/Kushner related

...

Based Florida Capitol Building.

Kek

>buildings have anuses

How will elevators reach the top floor?

so it looks like a massive dick, in a industry thats already screaming, my building is bigger than yours, oh mines 60 percent filled ((hard)) (note in real estate units like this are filled at 65 percent) so they waste space and make ugly shit, just so they can claim and charge more.. i wonder who could be behind these ((structures)) donalds son in law owns a place near my house.. it used to be projects.. i hope he turns it into a country club and buys one of the oldest country clubs in the country and my real estate values go through the roof.. gotta evict more niggers and these cool Nepalese people first tho.. honestly i don't mind people from nepal, they work, theres zero crime and their food is spicey, and the chicks are fine as hell. but i want white kids, soo.. white people comethe home.

New York to St. Louis will be the worlds largest croquet game.

theres a video that shows it.. in the event of a fire.. your fucked. these windows won't open. although they should.. but it would probably effect the structure.. when you get way up.. the winds are ridiculous.

The crystal section pretty much hosts parties every Friday night where people get wasted and pretend they are being cultured just because they pounded back their fifth glass of pinot grigio in front of a replica dino skeleton.

why is modern architecture so shitty? what happened?

Moved away from concrete

worst city in the world

just terrible

How can black buldings ever compete?

Architects realized building gargoyle sculptures and spires is a waste of money.

Best tower

Looks like a french fry.

Beautiful image in thoughtful post ended in 33.

Architecture is the ultimate spiritual expression of a civilization.
That's why Chinese Architecture despite the resources is so random and void, or why contemporary European architecture is so defeatist. American suburban architecture is dellusional (imitating pasts that never existed).
New York 1930s to 1990s ruled! Best city period ever!
I have faith because i know I will make a difference

What's funny is most of those apartments or commercial space will be vacanct for decades, and half the ones 'rented' will be by oversea billionares and empty most of the time, those empty buildings are killing New York City life.

>Flying drone towards building
>Building turns and the drone goes straight through the hole
BTFO

Wait if you took the elevator to the other side it would flip you upside down wouldn't that cause neck injuries?

Art Deco era was the best era.

>buildings in New York that aren't Gothic or Deco

letrashman.gifpeg

THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS PROPOSAL IT IS A SATIRACLE PROPOSAL YOU SPERGS

All they needed to do was angle off the top and have the thing be black. Shit looks like cubbies. Does every first grader in New York keep their bookbag in that thing?

helo where is the proofs pls :-DD

Imagine a world where everything was art deco

everything

"In response to the swathe of supertall luxury residential towers rising in New York, local studio Oiio has proposed a conceptual skyscraper that loops over to boast length rather than height."

and one of the renderings with monopoly man, pic related

I hate that fucking thing so much. So ugly.

>a Fuckin rectangle

what do people do in all these skyscrapers ? is it jobs in there. whats the purpose and if its jobs how are there that many jobs in those building and what purpose are they doing it makes no sense. how do people in cities even survive where do they even work. it seems like there is too many people and not enough jobs.

We haven't built a single good building since Chrysler and the Empire State. What the hell happened?

Wealthy elite buy apartments as an investment, live in them for about 2 weeks out of the year. Same thing happens in London and every other major city.

and pic related is being built as well. I think the architect was musing or joking on this one too because both buildings on 57th street match up with the rendering (about 2 blocks from each other)

Don't compare this atrocity to the arch please.

but why make a giant hollow arch building, when you could fill it with, like, WAY MORE building?

Looks like an invisible outline of a dick to me

looks stupid and wasteful

>conceptual glass floors at the top of the bend

whoa mama i can feel the vertigo already

they rent office space and apartment space, stores on the lower floor, etc
A million different companies will have offices there, sometimes call centres, sometimes it's just the new york branch of whatever, inc.

>wahhh wahh i hate new things
>all those old skyscrapers that nostalgic romanticists criticized in the same way that i'm doing right now when they were being built are great
>but all the new ones suck and are ugly
maybe we should only build mud huts

this
las vegas was my first impression
