my personal favorite is 99 Church Street, currently on hold. It's a residential building with a limestone facade like many of the pre-war buildings in Manhattan.

Imho, Stern should even go farther, add modern ornamentation, sculptures and feel free to innovate organically (compare to GE Building). My guess is investors are the ones who interfere once it might look too classical or Art Nouveauesque innovative.

Neither a luxury condo or hotel tower, but a school.
There's loads of educational buildings in New Classical Architecture in the US, also many churches, public buildings, private residences and midclass condo towers.
Btw, Stern was the 2011 laureate of the Driehaus Architecture Prize. Read more about it here.
The award comes with a prize money of $200,000 - twice that of the famed modernist Pritzker Prize.
I also added Stern at this new thread: NYC Architects - Those who built New York City and its Image

I like this one in Manhattan's Upper East Side, some American architects really are still fluent in classical architecture language:
