I mean it’s something, no matter what the design is it’s always welcomed in my eyes.

At least it’s not a cookie cutter apartment building, which is more than can be said than most of the crap going up around the country, case in point a lot of what is being built in Harrison.
Id rather have 2-3 copies of something reasonably interesting than your standard balcony-and-PTAC marred facade.
The copycat issue is a problem we want to have.

The issues tomorrow will be the demolition of the existing buildings and the design of the new ones. If you support this tower and want to speak publicly, it is important to note the existing buildings are not worth saving and the new one complements the other historic buildings in the district and doesn’t detract from them. Similar situation to the newest glass Prudential tower on Broad. Decrepit out of use buildings replaced by a tower that brings life to the neighborhood.

Not every design that gets thrown in Newark proposal board will change the game in how we design towers, there are going to be some hits and some miss.

Welp ladies and gentlemen fans of Newark development tomorrow are evening will differently determine if this project happens or not. It should because if they can approve halo, and 900 broad street to glassy modern towers that don’t fit in their neighborhoods and would cast a large shadow got approved while one is actually under construction. I really hope this thing gets approved tomorrow night, I don’t have a problem with the facade looking similar to one theater square or the two Shaq towers to fit the area better as long as it stays 45 stories I am happy. The sky’s the limit it’s time for Newark to dream big. Makes no sense jersey city is approving towers taller than this left and right while we fall behind. Fingers crossed see y’all tomorrow

I mean it was design by the same architecture firm so if anything this is a cousin of the halo tower. Don’t really see how it’s a real problem with the design. The majority of the new prudential tower is glass and so is this tower and they sit in the same historic district. It amazes me how other bigger cities can build these nice tall glassy towers in the middle of historic buildings and they still look nice. One Vanderbilt is only seconds away from the Empire State Building yet it looks nothing like it and it doesn’t. I wouldn’t have a problem if they made this building facade look similar to one theater square or both Shaq towers but we need some diversity in the skyline. Not every new building has to be as iconic or similar to those that’s been in Newark for more than 30 years. Besides look at the area halo is being constructed in there’s literally no other building that looks like it or has the same facade as it.

Reply to comment by TrafficSNAFU in What's with this damn helicopter hovering over 21 for over half an hour? by eastaleph
Very interesting. I've seen PSE&G fly a helicopter very, very low in a similar fashion. They'll fly over the transmission towers and inspect them. Sometimes a guy has to reach out and touch the wires with a metal rod to insulate the helicopter so they can get right next to the wires and fix things.

A lot of the looting incidents are due to gangs...often reselling things... I'm talking about the rise in Road Rage , Domestic violence , random violence like being pushed onto the tracks on the subway or punched walking down the street....and its not always people who look mentally ill...its increasingly normal people without any criminal history just snapping and killing people.

So insanity is now a defense for looting? Large numbers of “mentally ill” individual are surprisingly able to coordinate the ransacking of retails outlets, selecting the most valuable and street salable items to steal. You might want to rethink your support of the insanity defense. Who are the politicians egging on criminals ?

And I would feel bad for Brazilians if those Americans decided to have a Trump caravan in the middle of their city.
