    OCTOBER 10, 2014 Real Estate Another Glass Tower at Madison Square By ROBIN FINN In a neighborhood not yet overrun by luxury condominiums but very much in vogue with globe- trotters wishing to acquire a residence with the caliber of amenities and views only a skyscraper can reliably deliver, 45 East 22nd Street is about to as- sert itself just a stone’s throw from Madison Square Park’s only other modern glass-skinned tower, One Madison. The 65-story skyscraper will top off at 777 feet, besting One Madison by about 150 feet. But unlike other towers going up around town, the floor plate for this one will expand as the building rises. At ground level, the site measures 75 feet wide, but the glass tower incorporates a subtle 17-foot cantilever above its low-rise neighbor to the west, which allows the building to grow progressively wider as it rises, insuring that every apartment is slightly different in size. It culminates in a 7,000-square-foot duplex penthouse on the 64th and 65th floor, with the top floor measuring 125 feet wide. Paul Katz, a principal of Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, which designed the building and is the firm behind the master plan for Hudson Yards, described the tower as “a flaring, Brancusi-esque sculptural form.” Construction at the site, cobbled together from an assemblage of air rights and de- molitions on East 22nd Street, is expected to start in February. A sales office opens this month, and the anticipated move-in date for the first wave of buyers of the 83 units, which will range from $2.5 million to $42.5 million, is December 2016.

For the most part, it ignores the doctrines, faith, and practices of Orthodox Jews, and barely touches upon synagogue hie, which is the most meaningful expression of American Orthodoxy. It is hoped that the reader will find here some appreciation of the vitality of American Orthodoxy. Earlier predictions of the demise of 11 am indebted to many people who assisted me in making this essay possible. More than 40, active in a variety of Orthodox organizations, gave freely of their time for extended discussions and interviews and many lay leaders and rabbis throughout the United States responded to a mail questionnaire. A number of people read a draft of this paper. I would be remiss if I did not mention a few by name, at the same time exonerating them of any responsibility for errors of fact or for my own judgments and interpretations. The section on modern Orthodoxy was read by Rabbi Emanuel Rackman. The sections beginning with the sectarian Orthodox to the conclusion of the paper were read by Rabbi Nathan Bulman. Criticism and comments on the entire paper were forthcoming from Rabbi Aaron Lichtenstein, Dr. Marshall Ski are, and Victor Geller, without whose assistance the section on the number of Orthodox Jews could not have been written.
