I agree that a bit more of an extension or tapering would take this from a 95% to a solid 100% perfect grade. Wanting a bit more of a taper is the only thing I would change on this. The columns will really help emphasize the verticality of the structure and the base is outstanding. New York is getting some incredible skyscrapers!
