New York City is known for its endless sea of skyscrapers. They sprout into the sky, and blocking interminable amount of sun, resulting in dreadful showdown-casting monsters. What if that was no longer a concern? The architects of London-based firm NBBJ are set on developing a new structure that will work to eliminate shade year-round, completely redefining the skyscraper.

Designer of super-tall, super-skinny 432 Park Avenue, Rafael Vinoly, has taken his architectural talents Downtown. In his newest design, Vinoly adhered to the old adage, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” revealing yet another tall and thin tower for 22 Thames Street, which could potentially be the tallest residential building in Lower Manhattan.
