Finally some movement here. I think many can agree this is one parking lot we have been hoping would disappear sooner rather than later.

agreed, its always been particularly painful because you can see it from pretty much every corner of that park. I used to wish they'd plant a hedge.

Uh-oh, im going to say 15-20 storeys is the max for here

Uhhhh, a lot of New Yorkers are complaining about the shadows on Central Park.

Nobody loves shadows more than this guy:

Let's just hope that whatever gets built here is designed by Page & Steele. I feel they've been left out of this area of the city.

I wouldn't think that shadowing would be too much of an issue here given that the bulk of the site is north of Clarence Square.

Finally, I've been waiting a long time for this to happen. This is a really large site, I'm thinking the smaller tower would be south of the park (25ish storeys?), and the larger would be to the park's east? At any rate, I hope the podium or whatever aspect of the design considers the red brick warehouse right beside the property.

CityPlace is like a 5 minute walk from this site.

Yeah, great news. This has been an eye sore for ages.

Do we know who owns the property?
