Work has passed the halfway mark at 460 Main Street, aka Riverwalk 8, one of the newest additions to Roosevelt Island. The 21-story, 341-unit building is designed by Handel Architects and is being developed as a joint venture between The Related Companies and Hudson Companies. This will be the eighth component in the nine-building Riverwalk rental complex. Groundbreaking occurred earlier this year and topping out should happen sometime by the end of the year.

Let’s check your Monday headlines Good morning, New York Giants fans! Why NFL rival believes Giants are 'on the upswing’ - nj.com “What the Giants have right now is stability,” the rival said in Street and Smith’s annual NFL preview. “And a lot of other teams don’t have that.” ... “Dave Gettleman has seen it all over his 30-something years,” the rival wrote. “The one thing I know about Dave: He works really hard -- always very conscientious, thorough. Pat Shurmur is a blueblood football guy. To me, that’s important. You see the good, the bad and the ugly over all those years of coaching in the NFL. So, now you have to try to eliminate the bad stuff and go to town.” Here is a little more: “Are they better than a year ago?” the rival wrote. “They’ve got to be a team on the rise. They’ve got to get right tackle squared away. You bring in Kevin Zeitler, which helps, Will Hernandez had a good rookie year. Nate Solder was great in New England, but Tom Brady got the ball out so fast. Maybe the Giants need to speed things up a little bit and Eli Manning has got to get the ball out quicker. “You got Saquon Barkley there. There’s been a lot of positive things there. I would say the Giants have taken a step forward. They’ve got to get another good draft next year and another good draft after that, then I think you’re on the upswing.” Valentine’s View: “A lot of positive things there.” “On the upswing.” Positive words about the work done over two offseasons by Gettleman. Who’da thunk it? No one should claim that the Giants are “fixed,” or that they will put a Super Bowl caliber team on the field in 2019. I continually remind that it took nearly a decade of poor personnel decisions to get the Giants into the mess Gettleman inherited. It’s going to take a while to get this right.

Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. It looks like some of my rants from the previous week have rung true as today’s FC has a whopping total of 7 articles to view, along with other takes over-valuing the importance of Josh McCown as a Jet. Sure, he was a mentor to Darnold. But if that’s the best mentor the Jets can hand to the young QB, there’s something to worry about. Josh has had a very mediocre career, similar to Ryan Fitzpatrick in the fact that he moves to many teams and somehow finds a way to start. Implying that his absence is going to have a huge impact on Darnold’s future or mental frame is honestly laughable though. Enough of being nefarious, however. The Jets are still on the cusp of starting fresh, albeit with a lot more eyes on them than usual. Usually I expect the team to wilt under pressure, but it has two coaches and a GM who seem to be in cogs in what could be the eventual turnaround for the team. What do you think? With that said, here are your links to the Jets to start off your weekend.
