When you walk in Central Park or when you are at the top of the Empire State building and the Top of the Rock, you will inevitably be amazed (e), even shocked (e), by a very thin tower clearly higher than all the neighboring buildings of Midtown. This is the 432 Park tower, a building inaugurated at the end of 2015 and which reaches 426 meters high. An extraordinary project that cost its promoter a billion dollars!
The 432 Park tower stands out today as the 3rd tallest tower in New York, behind the One World Trade Center tower (541 meters) and the Empire State building (443 meters). And 432 Park is America’s tallest residential tower!
A tower that is the subject of debate in New York
This slender building houses 147 luxury apartments, which offer spectacular views of New York. But the lucky owners had to pay the price: the splendid apartment which occupies the entire top floor was sold for around 75 million euros …
If you broach the subject with New Yorkers, you will see that the new tower is not necessarily well received by everyone. Many New Yorkers, but also many tourists, find that 432 Park denotes the Midtown skyline. Too high, too thin, without elegance. Not to mention the shadow that the tower casts on the south of Central Park. It’s up to you to form an opinion! I await your opinions on the site’s forum with this debate on 432 Park ! ????
