In the heart of New York City, a city synonymous with ambitious designs and towering structures, a lawsuit has been shaking the foundations of that iconic global image.
432 Park Avenue is one of the newest and most impressive buildings along the entire Manhattan skyline. But now, it has become the most controversial. And we aren’t talking about mere bureaucratic squabbles or issues with funding. This tower faces shocking allegations of unstable construction, and allegations that developers knowingly chose aesthetics over safety.
How could this happen in the most financially powerful city on Earth? How could a high-rise apartment building, designed specifically for billionaires to live in, become a dangerous and dysfunctional structure? Could these allegations really be true?
Today on Looking 4, we’re going to investigate the story of 432 Park Avenue. We’ll trace the dramatic arc of this once-admired building, from its bold beginnings to its unglamorous state today. And we’ll aim to answer the question on everyone’s mind: what went wrong?
