My extremely hot take review for The Baffler.

Stairway to What?

The Vessel is really a perfect name for the sixteen-story monument nestled in the midst of the now complete "neighborhood" (read: real estate scheme) of Hudson Yards, New York City. Designed by Thomas Heatherwick, one of architecture's premier grifters, a man who should be banned internationally from using the term "parti," the Vessel is composed of 154 flights of stairs, 2,500 steps, and 80 landings.

This is what happens when you remove the mall from an atrium mall, and leave only the atrium. Including owning your selfies. cf: Ponce City Market and Atlantic Station (both in Atlanta), where they unironically refer to a three-parking-space piece of Astroturf rolled out over concrete as "Central Park."

"...if you were to take a selfie or a photo at the Vessel, the Hudson Yards developers would own the rights to your content in perpetuity. (Now they have the right to circulate and use your media, but not to own it outright.)" That is a chilling sentence to read!
