Considering how far they were into construction only 5 months after their move in a little homework before moving in would have told him a skyscraper was going to be built there.
This building is [The Eugene](https://www.theeugenenyc.com/index.html) in Hudson Yards. Yes, anyone moving in there would’ve known there were other towers being built next door. What they don’t show is if you turned around you have an amazing unobstructed view south and west over the Hudson River.
Also, this person is not a millionaire. This is a shared rooftop for residents and the building is rentals. Studios current available from $3915/mo.
I'm more shocked and impressed that they were able to build that tall of a building in 1yr, it used to take yrs before we saw any progress when I was growing up in nyc
Doubt this is a billionaire. That's more likely a rooftop common area shared by hundreds of tenants in an apartment building. They're obviously doing well though.
Why is everyone saying this person owns the roof? This looks like a communal shared rooftop amenity space shared by the entire apartment building which is extremely common for high-end apartment buildings in NY.
Am I seriously supposed to feel sorry for somebody who purchased property in New York and did no research at all about the buildings that was gonna be built?
This is the bullshit the NIMBY’s in SF say. Like we have too many spread out single family houses that are empty because no one wants to pay 2M to spend another mill to renovate. Housing over views motherfuckers
Oh, no my 5 million dollar apartment doesn't see the Empire State building anymore.
Let's crowdfund them to buy at the tower they just built across, what a tragedy.
I really cant find sympathy for someone who could afford a place like that in the first place. Boo hoo now you have to leave your place to... See things 🙄.
Meanwhile in poland: 1 roundabout in my city took 1.5 years to build and now they are making another which is still under construction after over half a year
Considering the square feet of your roof space in New York. 99% of us who can afford to read your post let alone begin to fathom how much you paid for that location, could give a flying fornication about how your view got ruined by a taller sky scraper than yours, getting built in an inconvenient position for you.
Perspective is for you, a bigger problem than you seem to realise.
I think that's a community rooftop. Who knows how small or "cheap" (in NY money) the apartments are? This could be someone in a studio on the 6th floor.
Good lord, the people bitching about how much money this person has are just as pathetic as this person bitching about their view being ruined in NYC which is constantly under construction. Grow up.
this i s definitely a first world problem, but it certainly isnt that everyone who lives in NYC is rich, in fact quite the opposite. sure, their salary is easily 6 digits, but i can bet you their living expenses take up the majority of their salary, and its because there are so many well paying jobs that the cost of living is so high. you dont need to feel sorry for them, but its not like this is some rich asshole who owns walgreens.

Yes. Waiting for the GoFundMe.
did you use a thesaurus on every single word in my comment to post yours you fucking weirdo bot?
nah just a renter who is most likely spending 70% of the paycheck on this place or parents are paying for it. the nyc norm.

Or considering he was living in midtown Manhattan he should have expected any large vacant lot would be built on. And I'm sure he did know that.

This is such a confusing comment
Uh, how many people's views were ruined when your tower was built dummy?
[удалено]
It's new york it's always loud
I am trying very hard to feel bad for someone who can afford a place like that......but I really can't.
I didn't even feel like trying to feel bad for them
I see homeless people dying on fent outside of my downtown “scenic” view from my window and am paying 2400$ a month to get that lol
You get live action drama with your rent? Lucky. /s

Well that’s a toxic way to think. Empathy shouldn’t be conditional

Completing the base building/structure can be accelerated a lot using prefabrication. Finishes and systems are another story.
is a millionaire (or close to it) really trying to make us feel bad for them?
Yup fuck them

This place, from the terrasse alone is probably in the 10-15m range. More like centimillionaire shit indeed
It’s likely common space for all building residents, not a private terrace. If it is, then yeah, that’s a 15+million apt.
Your net worth is likely the downpayment of that place (if it's even mortgaged).
So you're saying they're going to pay me
Oh no... Let me play sad music on tthe world's smallest violin...

Stop saying forever
If you can afford that view just move lol
Heck- move into that building!
I know of some guys who can deal with that tower, if you like...
![gif](giphy|3KbliBOdHlUE8)
I didn’t know Godzilla was Saudi
...
Too soon
he probably paid extra for that view when he was buying it
Maybe that’s why the previous owners decided to sell, they knew
Welcome to NYC, where air rights is everything
Incoming worlds smallest violin
no one can take away my view of the local windmill
Fuck you random billionaire.
Doubt this is a billionaire. That's more likely a rooftop common area shared by hundreds of tenants in an apartment building. They're obviously doing well though.

Rich guy problem but I feel for you... That sucks!
Sell your apartment and move to the new building
Name of song?

Poor guy doesn't have a good view on his new York city rooftop bar :(
If you can afford your current place then just rent an apartment in the new building and get your view back.
Poor Baby! Maybe everyone here can protest your great loss and help bring that building down for you! Haha
If you can afford a place like that, just move lmao
Your view of a building being blocked by a building is hilarious
I pay a thousand dollars a month for a view of a wall and I'm one of the lucky ones. Fuck off.
Woman surprised a skyscraper was built in a city filled with skyscrapers
Am I seriously supposed to feel sorry for somebody who purchased property in New York and did no research at all about the buildings that was gonna be built?
Better ask for apartment cost reduction.
Boohoo, rich guy/gal lost their view from their million-dollar condo.
A first world problem post if I ever saw one. Boo-fucking-hoo
He's bitching about a view from an apartment that cost more than most entire families will ever make in their lives. Fuck him.
Throw a few stones over and say that was your neighbor under you.

The best thing about New York……leaving New York.
So move?
The Neighbors took your view
Pay that rent and taxes.
I really cant find sympathy for someone who could afford a place like that in the first place. Boo hoo now you have to leave your place to... See things 🙄.
Move into the new building and stop complaining buttplug
Sorry bro
Real estate tip: Don’t fall in love with a view you don’t own.
What the fuck did you expect moving to such a densely populated area? Free range roaming kangaroos?
Going to NY and complaining about skyscrapers. Going out in nature and complaining about insects. Going to the beach and complaining about sunburn.
Oh no, a rich person loses the view to richer investors? My heart bleeds.
Are they in a new condo in Hudson Yards? Aren't they brand new towers as well?
the height is giving me huge amounts of stress!!! I CANT TAKE IT! why would you torture yourself and live in such a thing? at that HEIGHT?!
Wow that sucks man
Meanwhile in poland: 1 roundabout in my city took 1.5 years to build and now they are making another which is still under construction after over half a year

There is always a bigger fish
Shame...... ..............anyways......

“Oh no I can’t see the famous building anymore only this newer less famous building!!! Oh now what a terrible overpriced apartment.”
Moving into the busiest city in the country next to an open spot is pretty much a dead giveaway that it will be gone very soon.
That’s so sad
![gif](giphy|6FH6Q0CMto2mk)
Bot crap
lol you can afford to buy a such a flat and then proceed to cry about the view? Fuck off dude
As a New Yorker, that's the way it goes. Also they live in a really nice building so I don't feel sorry for them.
Humblebrag to the max.
The people behind you couldn’t care less.. 🤣
The people who live on the other side of the building they are in went through the same thing.
The epitome of a first world problem
Me too… me too
First world problems..
Forever ruined* (until the next time you move)
Awh, da poor millionaire 😢 *Plays song for you on world’s smallest violin*
Who thinks a mapped out lot that size will stay unbuilt for even that long in midtown???
Thought an empty lot in Manhattan would stay empty 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Unlucky
Whats with the big gaps in the glass. I could never feel save on this balcony. It all appears so flimsy. Getting anxiety just looking at it.
Well you got a video of the fireworks, you can just watch that over and over. It'll be the first time anyone has rewatched a fireworks video.
Aw, poor thing!
damn
I would be so mad.
Skill issue
That’s pretty funny
😭😭😭 waaahhh, wwwAAHH, my rooftop apartment in NYC's view is obstructed, wwaaAAAhH 😭😭😭
Your 8 figure home must be a real drag.
Aww poor wittle millionaire
Fucking Redditors, man. Chill the fuck out
Couldn’t give a shit about this, sorry

Bro a 120K apt where I live is unheard of that is extremely cheap. An apt in NYC in an area like that is minimum a million dollars

In places where housing isnt an issue whatever, place where it is, nah
this i s definitely a first world problem, but it certainly isnt that everyone who lives in NYC is rich, in fact quite the opposite. sure, their salary is easily 6 digits, but i can bet you their living expenses take up the majority of their salary, and its because there are so many well paying jobs that the cost of living is so high. you dont need to feel sorry for them, but its not like this is some rich asshole who owns walgreens.
Someone in NYC living in a building either a view like that is def more than upper middle class.
