Limite de hauteur à 200m, pour ou contre ?

They can still sell their condo 3x the price they paid 10 years ago. Rich will get richer.

Less than a decade after a spate of record-breaking condo towers reached new heights in New York, the first reports of defects and complaints are beginning to emerge, raising concerns that some of the construction methods and materials used have not lived up to the engineering breakthroughs that only recently enabled 1,000-foot-high trophy apartments. Engineers privy to some of the disputes say many of the same issues are occurring quietly in other new towers.

The disputes at 432 Park also highlight a rarely seen view of New York’s so-called Billionaire’s Row, a stretch of supertall towers near Central Park that redefined the city skyline, and where the identities of virtually all the buyers were concealed by shell companies.

The building, a slender tower that critics have likened to a middle finger because of its contentious height, is mostly sold out, with a projected value of $3.1 billion. The 96th floor penthouse at the top of the building sold in 2016 for nearly $88 million to a company representing the Saudi retail magnate Fawaz Alhokair. Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez bought a 4,000-square-foot apartment there for $15.3 million in 2018, and sold about a year later.

Dire qu'on aurait pu avoir notre supertall il y a plus de 60 ans.

The claims include millions of dollars of water damage from plumbing and mechanical issues; frequent elevator malfunctions; and walls that creak like the galley of a ship — all of which may be connected to the building’s main selling point: its immense height, according to homeowners, engineers and doCommunauté urbaine de Montréalents obtained by The New York Times.

Hubris on the part of designers, builders and owners.

Je préfère de loin le 1000 de la Gauchetière qui a finalement été construit à cet endroit.

Effectivement, à 325m elle aurait encore été en 2022 la tour la plus haute du Canada. Par contre elle aurait complètement dénaturé le skyline de Montréal.

Vous êtes sûrs que le Phare de Régis ne l'aurait pas dépassée?

Tour Bonaventura 325m > Phare Régis 288m... incluant 27m d'antenne.

Merci, mais sachant qu'il devait dépasser Montréal, il aurait fait un effort avec les Dallaire!
