The new AOL/TW building
The Observer's Tom McGeveran looks at the monstrous building that AOL/TW will be moving into sometime this fallassuming they're still around, what with having lost a mere $44.9 billion this quarter. At $1.8 billion, it's the most expensive single-building construction project in the history of the U.S., and it's designed to be a sort of self-contained city. "It will be possible for the [condominium] owners feet to literally never touch the ground, if they re so inclined," says Dolly Lenz, senior vice president of Insignia Douglas Elliman.
