A proposed skyscraper in NYC that would be the first for Black Americans! Don Peebles in the cut!

[EBK String]

where in the article did it state that this was a win for the race or that it was supposed to benefit the race?

The headline states it would be the first skyscraper built by Black Americans. Who gives af. Give us reperations so we can build our own global city.

Aren’t the McKissacks from Nashville?

maybe initially, but multigenerational architectural and consrution firm. The Breakfast Club actually had one of them on the show

What a waste of money, crazy thing is them big ass buildings don't get used for Jack shyt so I expect an evergrande situation in that city soon enough

 

[GunRanger]

As someone living in an active seismic region, that rendering gave me immediate anxiety.

I know I'm not especially learned in physics, but how can the top of the building be that much bigger than the base?

The base is wider than the top

Dedicated transit lines between the boroughs

I shouldn't have to go through manhattan just to get to queens from the bronx

Also @NewYorkIsBetterThanDallas I agree. This building should be in Harlem. Give uptown a skyscraper

Move outta BX my guy ..

Anywho they need to lure embassies as tenants.

[MIKE SPLEAN]

What the fukk is that design tho lmfaooooo

 

[Geode]

The title says proposed bro. I know

every building in America has to be “allowed”.

Yes. And proposals aren't always accepted. I'll try and be optimistic, since the let the atrocities of Hudson Yards go through, but I'll believe it when I see it.

Working on Jfk vs working on prime Manhattan real estate are two different things.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

breh there’s like 15 major things this city needs ahead of that shyt

- at least 2 more tunnels tunnels to NJ
- finish the last 3 phases of the second ave subway
- dedicated subways to both airports
- major infrastructure updates on highways like the cross Bronx
- dedicated bike lanes with barriers
- dedicated 24hr bus only lanes
- municipal multilevel parking structures
- widespread parks upgrades

and if you got people in public housing or receiving benefits, make these motherfukkas work. Put in work for your benefits.

LMFAO. We don’t need half that shyt, especially no damn 24 hour bus lane

Exhilarating architectural masterpiece of the east.


Mario Van would be prouds.

[humminbird]

honestly, this looks like the plight of black Americans trying to make it in the system
we have so many talented people(the top) that get cut off that in the end only a small number of us "make it" (bottom)

 

[Mowgli]

That's not the full design is it.

Scrap the project.

 

[Renegade47]

that shyt garbage lmao
