There are a few more tidbits about Christian de Portzamparc's upcoming Carnegie 57, which is shooting for tallest NYC residential building status, in this Archpaper piece on Portzamparc's partnerships with Extell. The tight lot space for the building left de Portzamparc without a lot of room for "architectural flourish," but he worked some in by curving the building's setbacks to "express New York's verticality," said one of his firm's principals. The project's steel girders should be showing by the end of the month. [Archpaper; previously]
