Aaron, all of the towers are really looking good.  I'm especially a fan of "The Helena".

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

SimCoug- Thank you!!!

cmdp123789- Thank you!!!

9gruntsand1hammer- Thank you!!!

Andrey km- I wonder how the glass will turn out too.

jaredh- Thank you!!!

 

The Helena

 

Okay, I'm at the part of extruding the windows, the lass right now is a place holder, but the color should be like that for the building. I still have to model the metal objects that is place between the floors to hide the concrete floors.

 

[cmdp123789 710]

It looks awesome.. question.. how are u going to model the interiors??

[unclesahm 32]

Both towers look great! If you want further inspiration for brownstones, check out West 68th Street... I used to live there and would love to have something like it in my city1

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Wow! It's looking great so far!

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

cmdp123789- I will have to model the walls inside the building so the night lights will not spill though the building. This is nothingg new sometimes I have to worry about that one brick buildings to.

unclesahm- Thank you, I will take a look 68th street.

Schriefer- Thank you!!!

[Hanson784 165]

Interesting to see you BATing new constructions since you're the king of classic pre-war apartments.

 

All the construction going on in Manhattan is getting hard to keep up with and sometimes makes my head spin. I was walking down Park Avenue the other day past the 432 Park construction site and noticed how tall it had gotten over the past months. I feel like I'm living in Dubai during the early 2000's....

 

Not personally a fan of the supertall's (since one of my favorite bookstores in the city is being demolished for another one) but that's for another thread.

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

cmdp123789- Here's some news.

 

Hanson784- I'm not a fan of Super tall building myself. I still want to bat older buildings, I have some many I want to make it's impossible to day all.

 

The Helena
