Skylines

Not too long after we moved into the neighborhood, construction began on a big residential tower in what had been the northern quad of Union Theological Seminary. Completed last year, residents have now moved in - including the faculty of Union, accommodated on lower floors. They get access to a northwest-facing roofdeck on their eighth floor which allows dramatic views of Riverside Church. Friends took us to see it today. To the northeast, you could see our complex, with funny little ziggurats on the top you can't see from below.
