People will be able to afford them. A lot of global dollars will keep the economy lifted. Investors would not be building if they didn't have sound financial vision. It is becoming a psudeo gated community. This development will not seize till all land is exausted.

What goes around comes around ;)

Interfering with a view is nothing compared with the subblocking and shadow-creating aspect of these structures that also isolate the city from the waterfront. Unfortunately, the visionary urban planner has long since been a thing of the past.


Views are never guaranteed anywhere whether your in NYC or JC, unless you own the land where your view is. You are very naive if you think you view will last forever.

I went for a jog along the waterfront this weekend and noticed that monstrosity going up. It seems like such a small parcel of land for such a big building. And I'd be PISSED if I lived in that building right behind it (the Mandalay I think?). It looks like the new building is going to really interfere with their Manhattan views.

Fisher Development Associates
Crystal Point - 43-story condo tower
the 436-foot-high tower that calls for a total of 269 residential condo units, many with outdoor terraces and most with city and water views. The base of the building will be a 60-foot-high parking deck with a total of 275 parking spaces. The site plan also calls for a 6,000-sf retail space that is expected to be occupied by a restaurant, as well as a marina and a waterfront walkway.

Any idea what is going up here? I find it very annoying that they have the waterfront access closed there for the construction (although not as annoying as the early morning wake up when they were driving piles into the ground....)
