The Verizon Building went from whatever to whatever. 2 Columbus Circle went from ugly to ugly. Basically neither building really changed it's look, just updated it.
Like a librarian who looked like a librarian 40 years ago and looks like one today, even though she's wearing period appropriate clothing.
Anyway, if there is any building in NYC that is hurting for a new look, it is this monstrosity.
For it's location it falls far short of the spendor required.
