  • The Big Apple has been on the radar of people around the world for well over a century and it’s not hard to see why. The city has been erecting skyscrapers since its inception and it's been a hub of both culture and innovation for just as long. But as time goes on, buildings along with dreams get bigger, and there needs to be enough cash on hand to meet those changes. So enter the world of megaprojects. New York City spends billions and billions of dollars to bring people the latest and greatest structures and services and it seems that new projects are popping up every day. So join us for today’s video, where we look at the top 15 megaprojects in New York City!

    Good thing we fixed our homelessness crises and poverty problems before doing all these mega projects. Oh wait never mind that was just wishful thinking. End the drug war end mass incarceration. We have trillions for bankers, war, huge corporations, and whatever the else the wealthy want, but act broke when giving the poor pennies. This country should be ashamed of how it treats it's poor. Oh and someone working 2 jobs shouldn't be homeless or living in their car which is also a thing in the richest country in the world. WTF!!!

    While some of these projects are claimed to include "affordable" housing, will the city's service workers be able to live there? Manhattan rents have already driven out many of them to other boroughs or further away, and these glamorous new structures won't be cheap. I suspect that many of the smaller enterprises that make Manhattan a "happening" place will move away because their workers can't afford to live there anymore.

    You know those doomsday bunkers with projections of outside in them? Do that inside these skyscrapers and then cover the entire outer shell with solar panels. Could probably power all of New York with that. Just a thought.

    “Mega projects” only make me wonder, with all of the flaws in nature, are people supposed migrate to the sites of said “mega projects,” & assume our position on the very bottom floors, as maintenance workers, & security guards “if we’re really lucky 🍀,” since all of that money, seems to be surrounded by poverty, in every city their building skyscrapers! #ModernEgyptianPyramids #Jinga

      It’s a really good design in my opinion, not overly flashy but definitely timeless. It’s also important to remember that these are office buildings we’re looking at, they’re not just built for the public’s gaze. The tenants of the world trade centers have to approve on a design, and it would be hard to get all the office tenants in two world trade center to agree on something super flashy that could be viewed as a poor design in the future.

    BABYLON WASTEFUL PROJECTS in EXPENSE of people's TAX and while homeless people housed in pig pen. Those financing them are UNFORGIVABLE. BUT, maybe Bronx Point IF and only is really affordable, only $200/month maintenance. IF those skyscrapers are not affordable; then have mercy on their souls! May they first give those to all homeless. I will wait for any affordable in Queens. We wish only for AFFORDABLE big 2 floors dome garden parking lots honeycomb for all DIY TINY HOMES here in Queens, NY.
