AOL/TIme Warner building at Columbus Circle
The NYT documents the progress of the new AOL/Time Warner building at Columbus Circle which, thanks to a building department loophole, was originally considered an "alteration" because it preserves some of the foundations from a parking garage that previously existed in the space. The 2.8 million square-foot "alteration" will include a Whole Foods Market, a restaraunt by Jean Georges, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and AOL/Time Warner, if hasn't managed to further self-destruct by the time of completion.
