8. 220 Central Park South

Along 57th Street’s Billionaires’ Row, 220 Central Park South is another work by Robert A.M. Stern, clad in limestone like 15 Central Park West, completed in 2008. Also akin to the earlier residential building, 220 Central Park will have two sections – a 17-story “villa” and a 66-level tower. The total super-slender tower will be 950 feet tall and 77 stories. As the Skyscraper Museum reports, Vornado, the developer of 220 Central Park South, was in a tiff with Extell because of blocked views but “in 2013, the two settled this dispute: Vornado paid Extell $194 million for the parking garage, and both developers agreed to move their projects slightly to secure views.”
