“As a new resident of 550 Fifth Avenue, you should be aware that this combination of sky-high and extra skinny produces the following unique (we like to think of them as ‘exclusive’) conditions within this building.”
Welcome to 5050 Fifth Avenue, the newest in a crop of super-tall and extremely narrow New York City residential buildings! Of course, there are many tall buildings in the world, but few match this particular mix of excessively tall and overly slender.
This large gap in the center of your unit assists in the expansion and contraction that the building necessarily undergoes with temperature changes, moving as much as eight feet during the day. Stay out of the crevasse in the hour after sunset, or the building will eat you.Because air needs to be pumped into the low-oxygen areas at the top of the building, a fire that broke out on the ninetieth floor receives a steady stream of pure, unadulterated oxygen, keeping it eternally fuelled.
