It looks like the building shown here will become a reality. Santiago Calatrava's cubes building in New York City has gotten the okay from the New York City Department of Buildings. The eight-story base will be a museum and there will be two lower commercial units followed by ten townhomes which will be connected by three elevators. Each cube will also have its own internal elevator. The entire structure will be 1,000 feet and concrete piles will be driven 190 feet down into bedrock for stability. We thought the Plaza would be pricey but developer Frank Sciame promises that this building "will be the most expensive residential tower in the city." Gulp!

These will be amazing if they actually follow through with it! Don't you think it's kinda creepy that there are two airplane trails in the background though??? hmm...
