We are never going to be rid of that dog of a hotel
Sorry, I know the Hotel Pennsylvania is a McKim, Mead & White building, but even they had some bad ones, and this was a really bad one. I have waited for years for this flea-trap to be demolished, and I fear it will be there for many more years. It is an obsolete and disgusting building - the renovation will simply be putting lipstick on a rotting carcass of a pig.
As to the Pelli discussion above, Pelli does seem to have run out of new ideas. That said, his buildings are awfully handsome. I work near the GS building in Jersey City and it has really grown on me over the years.
