BTW The Verizon Building IS in the Brutalist category. Most of it is a black facade. I guess some of the streaming vertical lines (windows) could constitute it being part International Style.

No, no it's not. ALL of the Seagram Building's facade is black, does that make it Brutalist? Absolutely not, it is literally one of the defining examples of international style and high modernism.
