Maybe you should go back to an earlier point, when the height was
increasing. Maybe that will help offset any feelings of loss. Probably why most don't feel it.

As I said earlier, outside of New York City, there is only one tower in the entire western hemisphere with a higher roof height, and that's the Sears in Chicago.

The changes as street level are what's making me
really like this building as opposed to just liking it. I remember someone at KPF saying they didn't really know how the 10th Ave side would transition, but they've done an excellent job so far.
