Thank you so much! We LOVE our viewers 👍👍💙
Exactly. This is my favorite channel.
Exactly. This is my favorite channel.
I haven't found another one thats even close tbh.
When will it be finished
I didn't know you could buy air rights and stack them wow
it's what is preserving grand central station right now.
Buying imaginary property rights. Brilliant idea, yes?
Yes, this is possible. Normally these rights are sold by historical buildings, which could, theoretically, be bigger but won't actually be expanded. By doing so, a smaller building converts its unused air space into money.
@@SagaciousSilence i know it sounds dumb, but it means that neighboring properties cannot reach your hights, so preserves the view of e.g the Chrysler building.
@@YgorSad yup, and thank god grand central station was saved!
Those old skyscrapers like the Chrysler building have a certain charm to them that the modern skyscrapers can't beat.
Well in 50 years this one will get that charm too
@@tomknox7425 I personally don't agree though you may be right, I would naturally miss it if we moved on from the current style I think. Things aren't just the same I think. However, Brutalist architecture from the 60s/70's still looks somewhat depressing to me and hasn't gained any charm so why should I think a glass tower that looks somewhat soulless to me would?
@@PeteS_1994 Yeah good point. But I think people never really fell in love with the brutalist architecture ever :D
I agree that these glass towers tend to look soulless but The One World Trade Center for example looks pretty beautiful. But you are right chrysler building, the 40 wall street or empire state building feel alot more charming.
Pete S. It’s called having a pretty design
So ttue
"New York City's skyline is changing like NEVER before!"
The early 1900's beg to differ...
There’s nowhere else to go but UP!!!
@@derrickclark5510 well it did go down in 2001
Mikoch2 good for you! This is exactly the type of moronic comment in these supposed documentary style videos which is included just because it sounds dramatic but has absolutely no basis in truth. Is this where we have landed in America? Where sounding slick or looking good is more important than getting the facts right. I call it the "stupification" of America.
XIAO yikes
@@derrickclark5510 tell that to all the New York liberals who have invaded my great state of Florida. They fled an overly taxed, overly regulated, high crime area, moved to paradise and then immediately try to infect our local government so they wind up exactly where they were when they left New York. I live in a heavenly little town called Stuart. I can't get a plastic fucking straw anymore! They're starting to regulate every little thing.
Now this is an informative and subtle way to have sponsorship for a video - a detailed look at a component of the project sponsored by the company responsible. Well done.
I didn’t even realise there was an ad
I don't think that world-class architecture firms like KPF need to be concerned about advertising on UA-cam, but a little positive PR certainly can't hurt!
Awesome video! The One Vanderbilt has risen so quickly, the construction speed is phenomenal
Skyscrapers & MegaProjects yeah its 5 months ahead of plan...you should make voice over videos like the b1m!
It's the only major American project I can recall in the past few decades that's been so far ahead of schedule.
Keep up the work man your channel will one day be as big as the b1m
Great video as always! I was in NYC last year and this building already looked fantastic and fits right in the urban fabric. It'll definitely be a midtown icon in no time.
It doesn't seem that it blends heritage when authentic even more beautiful buildings that fit nicely in the station's environment were brutally demolished.
Samuel J It blocks the view of the Chrysler building
Or Eye-Con.
Samuel J no the wtc twin towers were iconic these is just a piece of shit of a building stacking on top of each other the nyc skyline collapse when the second tower of the wtc collapsed
I live in NYC and I see this happening right in front of me!.!.
Putangina! Jk!
Same!
Derek Theler We should hang out here in NYC!.!.
Me or the other guy?
Me too and it's extremely ugly and doesn't match the city's vibe at all. More housing for ultra-elites to show off to their friends. Definitely not what NYC needs right now.
Ever since I moved to America one thing I've Loved here are the super amazing tall buildings and how cool they look. New York is just one of the most beautiful places for buildings that I've ever seen. I live in LA and we have only one group of buildings pretty much. But New York and these types of new buildings are so slender and tall I just so incredible and just watching the progress of how they're built and the information about it that you guys present just makes my day.
Лол, предала Русь
Go back to the motherland
@@douglassantet647 go back to yours
Small human-scale buildings are the most attractive, comfortable to live. These new, tall, repetitive, covered with boring glass and grey buildings are in comparison extremely ugly. Thank god that Moscow and other large European cities preserve history and do not have these monstrosities in their city centers.
Ксения Ковалевская agreed New York is amazing🗽
New York city will never stop building skyscrapers 😙👌
I miss the original Twin Towers. I remember visiting the observation deck on the roof of the South Tower. Rest in peace to all of the people who died in the attacks of September 11, 2001 and the bombing of 1993.
of course not. it's the biggest skyscraper city in the world.
@@Hotters9060 Amen! I used to work at 2 WTC -70th floor...our offices moved out in 1985 but i got to work 10 yrs in a place that few have ... Yes, Never Forget!
Yea and will never stop getting more expensive lol
Not if Deblasio gets his way 😂
"No more syscrapers for NYC!!" ..what a clown.
It looks like a great environment in which to work. I am sure the resident companies are going to pay through the nose for it. Great video once again. These are always so well done.
Yep, no doubt they'll be paying at least $200 per square foot, per month for office space inside this new building!
B1M giving us what we want!
This building is definitely making an impact on the NYC skyline. It has a striking width. Can see it well from Rockaway beach.
@Mark Grant I think it's fair to say that the Chrysler building has had plenty of time to be in the limelight.
@@CockatooDude Not enough
@@astropurpless Oh come on it's been like 90 years.
@@CockatooDude Some people try to keep stuff for a long time
The design isn't bad, I just wish it was further away from the Chrysler.
More new york🗽
Amazing skyscraper and video!
Mind as well be called Stark Tower since it’s right next to Grand Central Station.
please dont hate me, but i think this building doesn't look nice. is it me, or why architecture of today looks so damn boring? :(
What would you rather it look like? I don't see how a stone building that big would look better
@@TheErudite21 I think stone looks much better than steel, glass and plastic, but it's not just about the material. Also the shapes, the composition, the symmetry, patterns, ornaments ... look at the skyscrapers of the late 19th and early 20th century! They look fantastic and impressive. why not transfer these proven beauty formulas to the modern age?
@@fenixfunk Like what?? I do enjoy some good stone buildings and do think glass is used a bit too much. But this particular building is really beautiful and a unique design!
A lot of stone buildings tend to go too far into Brutalism and look bleak. And I just don't think a stone building is physically capable of being built this tall.
The Empire State building for instance seems terribly blocky and inelegant to me, looks like something out of minecraft.
The Chrysler building on the other hand looks timeless, unique, and unmistakable. If the Empire State building was as tall as a normal building, it would be completely unrecognizable.
I live in Atlanta, there's several great stone buildings such as the Georgia Pacific that looks like it's made of marble, the bank of America one is like a better version of the empire state IMO...
All that to say the use of material is secondary to the overall design. I think this is designed very well and utilizes the material to further the design by letting in more light than stone ever could, and being designed around the sight lines of the streets and buildings surrounding it to be less imposing and more elegant.
It's mainly to build as cheaply as possible.
Thank you so much for this channel, you're helping to re-awake my fascination for architecture that's been dormant since I was a kid.
It's amazing how long it can take to develop new skyscrapers in such a dense city.
Grand Central TERMINAL.
Not 'station'!
You would think they could at least get that right, makes me wonder how much else they get wrong?!
I'm not convinced that such an extravagant building should ever be considered environmental or sustainable, no matter how much recycling and other virtue signaling they do. 6 meter (20 foot) ceilings are utterly ridiculous, especially in an office tower. Being environmental and sustainable doesn't mean mere virtue signalling *after* your basic plans have been made. It means considering from the start whether a project should be built at all, and if so, where and how and what would happen if everyone else did similarly. Clearly that wasn't how this project proceeded.
I also think it rather tramples the English language to call it sensitive to its surroundings. It's quite clearly doing everything it can to stand out and differentiate itself from its surroundings, even going so far as to introduce jarring angled lines and cantilevers into an environment that formerly did not have them. Like most modern projects, it's anything but sensitive.
Omg! I see this building everyday and have always wondered what it was. Thank you for this.
What's it like living in New York?
The entire time I knew Thanos, he only ever had one goal, to redesign half of the NYC skyline. If he gets all the air rights.... he can do it with the snap of his fingers, just like that.
I miss the Twin Towers. I remember visiting the observation deck of the South tower in 1995. It was the best place that I ever visited in New York city. Rest in peace to the people who were killed in the attacks of September 11, 2001 and the 6 people that died in the bombing of 1993.
@@ld6056 New York city is beautiful and fun to live in. Rest in peace to the people killed in the twin towers on 9/11 and also the bombing in 1993.
Dylan Laffey Living in New York you are at the center of everything. It is the biggest and most important city in the world.
This is so high quality and I love binge watching it.
I just love how the old Art Deco style of the early skyline blends with the new modern concept of this building
It's a great design. There's only one thing NYC needs.....a super skyscraper......800 meters plus.
I agree.most asian countries have and the usa can't?
@@ΝικοςΠαπαδόπουλος-ε8η The USA is also larger, and so the biggest cities have less population, meaning low demand for ultra ultra density buildings.
Carbohydration Walrus Cuttlefish true, but if there’s anywhere in the US with a high population density it’s New York. I say it’s about time NY gets a super tall tower. 😎😎
@@stirhaven1981 And zoning ordinances limit building heights, so a megascraper is unlikely to be constructed in most large United States cities. Plus the 9\11 attacks and the 2008 recession put dampers on future building projects above 400m.
@@theutopianoutopioan464 I was thinking practicality of mega large buildings, but wasn't thinking of the legal implications. Thanks for the information tho!
New York City is the most aesthetically-pleasing modern futuristic amazing city in the world
New York city would have been better if the twin towers were rebuilt but taller and stronger than the ones that were destroyed on September 11, 2001.
u havent live anywhere else i see
Shenzhen?
@@benwong5982 Shezhen has way more skyscarpres than NYC but they are all tiny, they only reach like 1 meter passed skyscraper standards.
I wouldn’t consider it a modern city considering most of the buildings were built 70+ years ago
New towers should use the Taipei 101 naming formula because it will be easier to remember how many floors.
One Vanderbilt should all be one floor. A 1,400 hundred foot tall room lol
lol
Then it comes time to change the light bulbs in the ceiling.
432 park avenue would have about 1 floor per 3 feet
Good video as always! 💪🙂
What a great video, I hope to visit New York some day
New York city would have been better with the Twin Towers still standing but those terrorists destroyed them on September 11, 2001.
I live in New York. Everyone wants to come here.
Another outstanding presentation 👌👏👏👏👏👏
Grand Central Terminal, not Station
The B1M talking about my lovely home NYC! I love the B1M 😍
That 60iq face tho
@@danielgorzelniak3209 you must really hate your life and have hidden insecurities. Just by referencing iq exposes a large amount of subconscious baggage in your mind.
@@danielgorzelniak3209 Keep in mind those things will eat you inside out. But I think you probably deserve it if this is how you are in a global economy.
@@dionjeremy1711 tf ur talking about bruh

Oh my Darv, this building is so ugly that I can't think of any other design that's worse than OV.
A B1M upload? Yes!

In a place where there are other reasons to go than "just" a couple of fine skyscraper? YEAH!!!
Gotta love today^^
I miss the Twin Towers. Rest in peace to the people killed on 9/11 in the year of 2001 and also the bombing in 1993.
As always, superb video and first class narration. New York may not have the tallest towers in the world, but New York is the city of skyscrapers par excellence. One Vanderbilt reminds me a bit of One Bryant Park or Bank of America Tower and I much prefer it to the super skinny towers of Billionaires' Row.
Vieux Bal many cities in china start to beat Neat New York, but frl New York is a forest of skycrapers... 100 years of construction. even that city got 2 building attacked and destroyed by bad people
@@generalgrievous3066 sad but true. You can also add the Singer Building which was torn down in 1968. It was the tallest building in the world from 1908 to 1909. When it was torn down, it became the tallest building ever to be demolished on purpose. What a shame.
Could you make a vídeo about Madrid Nuevo Norte, the biggest urban proyect in Europe. It was aproved this morning.
The proyect will regenerate 2,65 billions square meters. Is 6 kilometers long. And will buid one of the biggest bussines areas in europe. With 3 towers of +200m one of them will have 300m and maybe will be the tallest in europe (330m) in total 15 buildings +25 floors = 15 with more than 100m. also the chamartin Station will be modernised to be the one of the most important high speed rail station in the world.
also 10.500 new houses will be buid.
Madrid Nuevo norte the spanish macro proyect
But Spanish sleep during the day. Mañana.
Finished after the familia cathedral.
@@roryblake3232 looks like u are an idiot.
New York is America's most precious jewel.
@M P How many billionaire's rows are there in your town?
from art-deco to steel to glass technology is progressing just so we can have these amazing skyscrapers and yes this amazing channel (:
Yes!
it's always a good day when B1M uploads. keep up the good work
Haha, thanks so much!! 👍
NYC should stick to the 1920-30 style mixed in with a little bit of modern glass towers. That would be the perfect mix to preserve New York’s culture and history while also being able to keep up with the times.
I love New York God!
It was obvious to me instantly (I grew up in NYC) that the words were wrong -- sometimes Grand Central Station, sometimes Grand Central Terminal. The second one is correct. The first one is often used.
The core? Is that to protect against 100 degree F. temperature swings . . . the exposed core?
Steel skyscrapers don't fall to the ground from fire. Three massively built steel and concrete skyscrapers collapsed and imploded in its own footprint on the same day ????????????????
What an incredible project! That Peri system is mindblowing! The whole thing is mindblowing! Great video, as always!!!
Ok, google, Pery System please..
Regardless of how one feels about the aesthetics of this project, the Peri construction system is genius.
The B1M is awesome. These projects are just amazing . NYC is definitely the capital of the world.
The core system is innovative. Excellent video as always. Great information.
NYC just keeps getting bigger and bigger
This was one of the best videos yet. Very educational, great story and visual flow. A beautiful building. The tenants that are there, residential and commercial will enjoy it.
Please do a video of the complex of Times Square and the towers of 1TS NYE Ball Drop, 2TS, 3 TS, 4TS, 5TS, 6TS and 7TS towers and the future of new building on Times Square
These construction videos give me so much anxiety. Like I can’t even begin to understand the process of planning how a skyscraper is built 😱
I'm 14 & I LOVE these videos about the new york skyline. anyone?
Same haha!

Very interesting thanks.
I work next to the building and it's almost as if everyday it goes up a few floors. Amazing!
Wow.. Love new york from sabah malaysia!
Your team should be very proud of the content they create your videos are always top notch. I would say top 10% of all content on UA-cam
It's Grand Central ***Terminal*** - not Grand Central Station!!!!!!!!! 'Grand Central' is not a station; it is a terminal (train lines begin & end there - it is not merely a stop/station along a train line). I love this channel but this one makes me cringe because I love NYC & this channel and so I'm shocked that this could be overlooked. Try typing "Grand Central.." into a Google browser and any website or even Wikipedia would tell you it's "Terminal" and not "Station" - not to mention if you referenced any scholarly encyclopedia, etc. I hope this is one of only very few other overlooked mistakes by B1M..
Absolutely love the neat, organized manner of this channel. Beautiful work.
I DO like this building on its own merits, but it suffers in comparison to the Chrysler, Empire State, and Grand Central Station structures that are also referenced here. The 'contextualism' and throw away details like the 'blink and you'll miss it' use of terra cotta tiles on the exterior, looks comparatively crude next to the classically detailed structures.
I'm especially underwhelmed with the bland summit of the building - which I find looks more like a random stack of glass slabs leaning against each other and bound with stretch wrap rather than being a 'breathtaking summit'.
The other wasted opportunity for me is the simplistic and forgettable pattern of the terra cotta tiles. When referencing Grand Central station immediately opposite of it, with its rich patterning and gorgeous details, I feel a somewhat stronger classic element to the design would have been more fun and engaging.
The best part of this building, for me, are the various 'improvements' the builders were required to include with the building. The underground links to Grand Central as well as the street level improvements looks positive. Also admirable are the LEED certification and an overall appealing lobby.
Once again, this is a good building, but because its being contrasted with some of the most beautiful icons of the classic era of skyscrapers, some of the soaring praise for 'One Vanderbilt' falls a bit flat for me.
I live near NYC and had no idea this was being built! Man I'm out of the loop 😥
It doesn't seem that it blends heritage when authentic even more beautiful buildings that fit nicely in the station's environment were brutally demolished.
New York is the best city in the world!
I love this channel. So informative, so entertaining for me. 🏙❤
14th. 😅
What's so funny on 14th
half of Burj-Khalifa's size
it's not a "super"-scraper
just a 'regular' skyscraper
Hey, your comment is so boring! By the way, New York City was so "super" tall commercial buildings built in last 19th century and early 20th century. Therefore, New York became the world's tallest skyscraper in the history. Until it is currently the world's tallest buildings than New York but New York's most iconic buildings that remind me why I love NY!
Amazing! Amazing info! Amazing photos! Amazing videos! Amazing building! Just plain amazing! 😍
watch every video on this entire channel and take a shot every time the 2008 financial crisis is mentioned
Another amazing video! Thank you!
We still remember - call it GWBUSH911
911 was and still is an inside job. Three steel and concrete skyscrapers doesn't pulverize all the way to the ground in freefall speed due to a fire.
Construction in modern day New York proves that construction never stops
When the twin towers were built between the 1960's and the 1970's, they did add a concrete core. Steel doesn't do very well in fire and maybe that is why the twin towers collapsed on 9/11. But the twin towers were designed to withstand an impact of a Boeing 707 aircraft traveling 400 mph. The airplanes that hit the twin towers on 9/11 were 767s.
Why is glass is always the first choice for the facade of the new buildings?
You already need to maximize the amount of light that gets into the building. The loadbearing core is situated at the middle, so only skinny columns are required at the edges, basically to hold the floors. And you end up with big windows and a very thin floor between them. So why not cover those with something similar too?
Here they use glazed white terracotta: newyorkyimby.com/2018/08/one-vanderbilts-terracotta-facade-installation-begins-as-superstructure-passes-halfway-point-in-midtown-manhattan.html
So basically only windows are made of glass: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/74/OneVanderbiltMay25.jpg
A masonry exterior is likely more expensive than glass, and developers probably don't care for historic attributes. Build in the cheapest way possible
@@mickanvonfootscraymarket5520 Masonry takes up a lot of space and seriously limits light intake. The Grand Central Terminal is just one big hall, not much in the way of light inside the building. (And still, the thick walls and structural elements occlude a lot of incoming light.)
@@pas. but Grand Central is a different structure with a different purpose, than say the Flatiron Building which would take in more sunlight as well being a a masonry structure. But I understand where you are coming home.
@@mickanvonfootscraymarket5520 One other important detail is mass of the facade. If you want to build a supertall structure, you want to minimize the mass. So I guess this alone somewhat predestines the facade to be extremely minimalistic, wind resistant, easy to clean, so a big homogeneous surface.
New York doesnt hold back.
The Freedom Tower is the most beautiful building in NYC. Period.
While that name 'Freedom Tower' is honourable, the correct name is One World Trade Center. But you are right, it is the most beautiful (modern) tower in NYC. I would go further and say, int the world!
Probably the best modern one, but 30 hudson yards is pretty close. In my opinion the best one architectually is the christler building
B1M always crushing the quality game on these vids!!!
New York looks so weird without the Trade Center, Empire State kinda controls the weirdness but still feels like a part of the city is missing :(
Yes I agree, natives always used this landmark as a way of knowing what way was "south" or downtown. My wish for the site would have been that the towers would have been rebuilt as they were, but with modern engineering enhancements on the inside.
@@BradThePitts We miss the iconic Skyline of lower Manhattan ( II ). Never forget the brave 343 FDNY heroes who got people out of the towers. 🇺🇸
Wtf you can stack air rights now?
I didnt think I could be this glued to the monitor during and add for a skyscraper concrete core pouring system O.o
The twin towers did not have a concrete core and it was all steel and steel doesn't do very well in fire.
Contemporary architecture looks hideous compared to the masterpieces that are the Empire State and Chrysler buildings.
As a commercial RE analyst, the prospect of a $3B development is astounding. This is truly a special project. Brilliant design, integration with public transport, coupled with sustainability of resources. Thousands of professionals went into its planning and development. Would absolutely love to visit someday.
Great video. Nice way to start the day.🏗🗽🏙😉
I seriously love this channel, keep up the great content!
thanks for doing these videos! another great one.
Please more
One Vandy is actually a really beautiful building.
It is a nice looking building but i don't like the slanted lines on the lower portion of the building.. looking at them makes me dizzy.
This new. New York skyline. Looks like shyt. And all these dubai buildings belong in Dubai. Something about nyc speaks art deco from Tha 1920's thru 40's somebody forgot tha memo
Love The B1M
Design of new skyscrapers is boring, especially of this one ☝️. No new legends like Empire State Building or Chrysler 😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😥
Still smaller than One World Trade Center. The view from up there was breathtaking. I loved New York City
INCLUDES PAID PROMOTION
This is one of my favorite channels ever, I always look forward to your videos.
And seriously, if cities wanna build modern buildings then do it right like in this case *looks at Brazilian cities*
I literally see the construction everyday and now I know what it is, so thanks lol
The class of your content and the way you describe always make me eagerly wait for your next video
You should have over a million subscribers. 👌
I want Art Deco back though. I like that they're kinda alluding to it in a lot of modern buildings, but I want to see some new, true Art Deco skyscrapers! :D
TheOtherGuys2 YES!!
tbh the "alluding" looked like shit too, it spoils the modern glass with that ugly 80s highrise look. I say keep thr modern ones modern, but I wanna see some more Beaux-arts like the woolworth/flatiron buildings.
I always look forward to watching a B1M video!
The real beauty of Nyc is the character and charm this city has the amazing arcitecture despite those gorgeous tall bldgs it still has an open feel to it 🌹my fav city ❤️
