The Wall Street Journal rounds up the new glassy sliver buildings popping up along ultra-traditional Park Avenue, including the 19-foot-wide weirdo that is 1055 Park Ave. "Not everyone who wants to live on the Upper East Side wants a prewar building," 1055's interior designer Nancy Ruddy says, and she's right! One of the apartments is finally in contract. How are the locals reacting? With proposed extensions of the protected historic district, of course. [WSJ]
