MIDTOWN?Macklowe Properties' 510 Madison Avenue, the speculative office tower with the 20-yard swimming pool that was one of Harry Macklowe's last big gambles before the company's debt blew up in his face and his son took the reins, suffered what looks to be a pretty serious fire last night. A Curbed tipster sends in the above photo from the construction site at Madison and 53rd Street, adding, "First 4 floors completely roasted." A scan of the news this morning doesn't turn up much info, though Gothamist's news map does have an entry for a three-alarm fire at the address at 1:36 a.m. Here's the building's official site.
