New York’s latest crop of luxury residential developments

At an event hosted by the Skyscraper Museum, the starchitect behind 432 Park Avenue, Rafael Viñoly, gave a behind-the-scenes peek at his design of a building that, once completed, will be the tallest residential building in the western hemisphere. Tall and skinny is the trend with these new towers. Once complete, the building will stand at 1,396 feet.
