432 Park Avenue, New York City - timelapse of construction

I love tall buildings, and admire them being built - but I would honestly feel a little "nerved out" living extremely high off of the ground like that. I also have a tremendous amount of respect for the crane operator and all of the iron workers that are up there constructing that - "absolute" nerves of steel.

Who else thinks it’s so cool how smooth the construction is in fast motion?

Being an Architect or City Planner when I become an adult is my dream. THIS VIDEO IS AWESOME! :)

Whatever those crane drivers are paid, it's not enough!

This was me at six playing Lego

Amazing timelapse of a truly remarkable building in an awesome city.

Love the building, it looks amazing, especially in person.

every time lapse of a building construction, the cranes look like they're having a seizure

That crane driver has balls of steel.

For the first 2 minutes I kept saying “how are they moving that center of the building up like that” Then I realized it’s just the scaffolding that’s moving up not the whole building

I have to say that I love this building, the minimalist simplicity contrasts the city at large. I think if the city were to simply produce homogenous buildings they would be as dull and uninteresting as the dozens of identical blocks of social housing projects of the 20th century.

I like this building . I think its distinct . Sort of like a pseudo ultramodern brutalist architecture for 21st century ?!! Also kudos to whoever designed that tower crane goddamn its super strong considering it has risen to like 430 meters the amount of stress its steel took at the lower part seems staggering .

Thanks for sharing, thats awsome

This comment section is full of 8 year olds complaining and judging that the building is "ugly". They really haven't heard of modern architecture.

Top this vídeo....amazing.....l love New York.....♥️💙👏👏👏👏

I'm SO JEALOUS!!!!! I'm a born and Torontonian, if any of you are familiar with my city, you'll know 2 things. First, that you're the only city ahead of us in the number of skyscrapers in north America (yeh, we have even more then Chicago), and secondly, we also have the highest number of skyscraper proposals/approved/under construction in North America, but I doubt we'll ever catch up to you, no fair!! Then again, NYC is much older, and has been building skyscrapers almost a century longer then we have, but I'm amazed at the projects you have going up, especially the supertalls (aka anything over 300 metres tall). Believe it or not, despite it being relatively close, I've never been there, but will this summer, and I can't wait. I'm a bonafide skyscraper fanatic, and your city is a paradise for me! I say I'm jealous because of the system we have here in regards to building. It's a long, dragged out nightmare of paperwork, revisions, and height reductions, and it really pisses me off. I'd die too see all those supertalls you have , here, but our idiot city council hasn't a clue, and keep trying to keep everything under 300 metres, except for our landmark, the CN Tower. We currently have 6 proposals over 300 metres in the works, but I guarantee you the city council will force the developers to reduce the height for fear of casting shadows...WTF is that all about? It's a big city, we're suppose to build tall, if they want sun, move to the burbs where the belong, AND, even once approved, they're not allowed to being construction until at least 60% of the building is sold. It frustrates the hell out of me, think I'll move to your city instead, they at least aren't afraid to go tall!

I was paying too much attention to the other office buildings.

Such an amazingly tall beautiful skinny skyscaper. Prime Park Ave space with insane views.

cool video thanks for sharing!
