The design is basically half of the 270 Park Ave north-south massing.... without the cool subtle tapering effect from east-west massing. Very blasé and mundane.
More so, at 1600' height its bound to have the horrific skyline-killing effects of downtown's 1 Chase Plaza which in the 60s blunted skyline views of 70 Pine Street and 40 Wall Streets beautiful and graceful spire massings. In this case this will blunt off the crowns and spired of 1 Vanderbilt, 270 Park, (and hopefully) 175 Park Ave.
