This building is quite simply awful. It would be laughed out of Las Vegas where the bar for architecture is, if not low, rather flexible. It's polytetrahedral base is utterly confusing, it's mis-matched asymmetrical tower is faced with a mile of glass in ugly glazes, and the whole thing is bisected by an arc of light that reminds me of a fuse, as if this mess were about to blow itself up out of embarrassment. Out of all the stunning architecture in NYC, THIS behemoth to bad taste is the view from my apartment. Ugh.
