Did anyone report it to dbird.org? If not, I will. Any dead bird should be reported, especially window strike victims. The data helps rescuers and pro-wildlife legislation.

DeleteThat building sucks on a few levels, at least externally. Maybe it's great if you're living there but it's an ugly eyesore which takes up way too much space and isn't adding anything to the streetscape except dark shadows and ugly graffiti tags. Evidently, they've been unable to attract any retail clients for the ground floor, not sure what the problem is. Maybe prospective tenants are spooked by proximity to the massive LinkNYC tower? The FCC claims it's safe to live in proximity to such high-powered 5G infrastructure but globally the science isn't settled.
