Measuring Tempo

So there are new ads on the bus shelter at Third Avenue between 13th Street and 14th Street for this HIGH-TECH wonder of a living space, Tempo. Interestingly enough, these ads are almost right outside the kind-of-stodgy-now-by-comparison One Ten 3rd high rise by the Toll Brothers...



Here's what the residence would look like if you had a photo of it on your knock-off iPod...




Anyway, a little later I was on 23rd Street and Second Avenue...For some reason I thought Tempo was a little further along...




P.S. An image from the Tempo Web site....

    Grieve, c'mon, don't you realize that Tempo is so much more than just a building? It is a state of mind...

    Will it still be a state of mind when it's finally built in 2019?

    This place has no chance of survival.
