architect mark foster gage has revealed conceptual plans for a dramatically sculptural 102-storey residential building with sweeping views of central park and the new york city skyline. according to 6sqft, gage was commissioned by a high-end developer to see what kind of ultra-luxury development might be possible on manhattan’s 57th street.

each unit has its own unique figurally carved façade with balconies that frame particular features of the surrounding urban and natural landscapes. the building is clad with a series o limestone-tinted concrete panels with hydroformed sheet-bronze details, and brass-tinted alloy structural extrusion enclosures.
