425 Park Avenue

I'm at the MAS Summit today (visit my twitter feed for some occasional updates), where renderings and models for the 425 Park Avenue invited competition are on display. Norman Foster's winning design was unveiled a couple weeks ago, but I had yet to see the designs of the three other competitors—Zaha Hadid, OMA, Richard Rogers. So here they are.

  1. OMA was definetly the best form... Foster's and Roger's have the same form and principals but surely the Foster one looks more elegant.

  4. Foster's proposal might be 'just' ok .. for Dubai, south east asia, Mumbai - where the skyscraper is still beginning to evolve and the 'roof element' shines across the skyline ... but why does Manhattan need those 3 ugly antennas on top!!? what was he thinking??
