THE CENTRALE TOWERS.

THE CENTRALE TOWERS: THE STANDING L-SHAPED GUN.

The Centrale structure is a condo development located in New York which was designed by Pelli Clarke Architects for his developer Lou Ceruzzi who died.

The attractive structure is a 803 foot high mid block condominium tower with 71 stories the Centrale takes its place alongside Mid town's Manhattan most iconic building. I refer to the building as an L-shaped gun.

The designer builds upon with a Classic Art Decoration Architecture. The renowned architect Pelli Clarke has some notable great work like the Bloomberg Tower.

The are some beautiful elements  been displayed like the light reflection glass facade attached with facets of terracotta chevrons.

The structure reveals its base, body , crown. From the base view it looks like its touching the skyline with a multi rhythm of angled reflections.

This wonderful building might still be criticized by some Architects. Pelli clarke did a great job.
