And the award for best new facade goes to... The facade of 111 West 57th Street, the world slenderest skyscraper, consists of layers of intricate terra cotta pilasters and inlaid bronze filigree cladding on east and west elevations. The 1,428 residential skyscraper has a 1-23 base to height ratio, meaning its height is 23 times the width of the base - extremely skinny. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸 NYC Urbanism team member @mchlanglo793 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #skyscraper #centralpark #billionairesrow #centralparksouth #skyscraperengineering #architecture #skyscraperhistory #skyline #midtown #urbanism #skyhigh #cityscape #ohny #nycurbanism

Have you noticed the 1,400 bus shelters around the city that look like a crime scene? They are closed for inspection after one collapsed earlier this month. The contractor inspected a thousand of the bus stops already and found thirty had corrosion similar to what caused the collapse, causing them to close the rest for “emergency inspection.”
