The New, Megatower-Filled 57th Street Will Look Like This

It will be years before the crop of super-megatowers sprouting on West 57th Street has been fully realized. But now, thanks to NY YIMBY and illustrator Armand Boudreaux, we can see what Midtown Manhattan will look like with these monstrosities dotting the skyline. Boudreaux drew up some images of a future Midtown, which includes developments like 220 Central Park South, 111 West 57th Street, 432 Park Avenue, the Nordstrom Tower, and 53 West 53rd Street. It's started to look pretty crowded up there in the stratosphere, but at least One57 has some company. So much company, in fact, that you hardly notice it in these renderings, and isn't that a scary thought?
