Carter Horsley's Review of Carnegie Plaza

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"Some of the city's streets are interesting for reasons that are not always obvious. This block, for example, has the backs of two major skyscrapers on 57th Street and the City Center for the Performing Arts on 55th Street.

With five major loading docks on the block, there are a lot of trucks on the street, but surprisingly the traffic moves rather well and taxis often turn into the street." Read Carter's Full Review
