Solow Building

Description
The Solow Building (9 West 57th st) is a 50 story tower in New York City that was completed in 1974. It is notable due to its sloping north and south faces, which was done due to New Yorks natural light laws which require taller towers to tapper back to allow sunlight into the streets. It was designed by Gordon Bunshaft, however the original proposed design of the building was rejected and reworked into the Solow Building we see today. Bunshaft used the rejected design for the W. R. Grace Building several blocks south. The building has an unobstructed view of both central park and midtown Manhattan making rent some of the highest in the city, and making the building one of the most valuable in Manhattan.

Thanks for the compliments. There have been a couple of other Solow Buildings, but none of them where 1:1 scale so I decided to make one that was.

Hey! This is great. Wasn't there a Solow Building made a long time ago that was taken down from the Workshop? I think I still had it in my files somehow. But anyway, it's great to see a new, quality one up! :chirp: Hope to see more from you soon.
