Plenty of others decried the design, saying the building would overwhelm the area with its height and bulk.

Adding elegance and poise to the Big Apple’s iconic skyline, the project, created by David Chipperfield and his team in London, is a 32-storey tower building located by Bryant Park, which lends the property its name.  The project mixes private residential with a hotel located on the lower levels and up to the 14th floor.
