JP Morgan's new 270 Park Avenue Tower in New York is a marvel of engineering. It's a mega project undertaken by a bank like no other. What makes this mega project so special and what is the insane engineering behind this mega skyscraper

I thought this building was supposed to be 70 stories + mechanical floors. If they wanted to make this building a good looking building, they should have made it at least 6 to 12 stories taller at the top section (a more natural aesthetic roof height/ pinnacle height). Anyway, I hope this company goes bankrupt. The last thing they need to be doing is to be building a new headquarters. It's the worst bank in human history.
