Taken in abstraction from its surroundings, the Drake was indeed a beauty. Perhaps if it were located say around Lexington near Chrysler, where height seems to be somewhat restricted, it would still grace the city. But in that pic, it just didn't fit its surroundings.
The previous observation should not be construed as my saying that it should've been razed simply because it doesn't belong visually. It's a travesty that it had to be lost. People here are still lamenting the demise of the Singer Tower, after all.
