What really pisses me off is that the only real issue (namely, why is only 40 feet of the YWCA being preserved?) is going to be completely abused by these people to serve their own misguided and greedy interests.

Not sure about the structure of the YMCA building, but if the facade gets the total treatment, that'd be great. The building is a boarded-up bombed-out mess now, so anything towards preserving part of me seems like a step in the right direction.
Also, a natural counter argument is the same as Carley's with Fordham Spire....would you rather a short chunky building with the same number of units blocking more light, or have a tall skinny landmark tower?
