@nycrentguy: I used to eat kosher lunch inside a Vanderbilt mansion and had no idea. Built in 1891 as a wedding gift, 35 West 57th Street was later purchased for $24.4 million. Now this piece of NYC history faces possible demolition. Should it be saved? #NYC #BillionairesRow #NYCRealEstate #NewYorkHistory #manhattan

MsAntigonaki :

It’s a beautiful building - shame

Home Home :

I used to have sex parties there and we'd worship the devil

stephen44444446666 :

Save our history [Cool]

FedUp2 :

Very saddening.

NY Fox :

Finally it has been holding the project for years

t.pops :

How is this not landmarked

marcobeeee :

NYC doesn’t really preserve its history though, not like other East Coast cities (Boston). They’d tear down the Statue of Liberty and build a Blank Street Coffee if they could. 😂

Yitty G7 :

No please! NO!!! New York has to stop this insanity!

Jei :

I really wish the city wouldn’t destroy these beautiful buildings in place of those ugly glass structures

Gwen :

Why is it not on historical registration

Rogelio :

The only thing that is permanent is change.

NAS :

I loved the great American Heath bar. So miss it

mikeijames :

i wish they could preserve the facade and/or entire structure and build something devastatingly modern behind it and/or above it. if billionaire’s row has become the home of the city’s supertalls (and one day megatalls?), they should at least force the developers to make them architecturally innovative.

Mike Ferlazzo :

that should be a landmark

@realPOTUSs :

Hell yeah build up 💪

AIAROSE :

maxvonzeit :

Why could it not be incorporated into a new building surrounding it ,any half way decent architect would find it simple,we need to save historical buildings this would be a very interesting and logical compromise !!!!!

Home Home :

you had to throw in Kosher, WHY?

Raven6488 :

That’s great

user6737060643150 :

Disgusting

user8861925537646 :

They could easily build around it and give their building an amazing facade. But they like no style looking boxes.

zootedoffearth :

Bro the Vanderbilts built Grand Central, I think it’s fine if this little sht gets demolished, Family wasn’t that good either so idc

Dorothy I’m Not :

Why are they determined to kill Central Park with shade? I’m sorry about the food spot but my go to restaurant earlier in my life was is long gone. It happens but I didn’t know it would be so tall it throws shade sooo far. Nuts the plans get approved

SleptBoomer :

Forward progress is what it is. You nostalgia people want to go without your phone?
