Supertall Central Park Tower
Seen here from the lobby of the Time Warner Building, Central Park Tower is the second tallest building in Manhattan at 1,550 feet and the tallest residential building in the world. Designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, it was completed in 2019. The little guy next to it with a limestone facade is 220 Central Park South, 953 feet tall, designed by Robert A.M. Stern, also residential and 2019. To date, sixteen buildings in Manhattan qualify as supertall at over 1,000 feet, and a number of others are almost. (San Franciscans, note that the Salesforce Tower in comparison measures a mere 1,070 feet.)
