Stumpy looking, even at 555ft.
Nice look though.

this building has an awesome design, however it is a bit stumpy looking... if thise building were about 800 ft it would look a lot better. However its location makes it fit in well. 8.5/10

7.0

I expected alot more when I saw the impressions a long time ago. Its not bad at all, and maybe the best new skyscraper in NYC in years. I dislike the boxy windows more than I like the glass facade. nice try, and, every expressive tower, gets respect from me.
