I think the biggest crutch with Verre is its location. It truly is an exquisite tower but knowing what we know now and how it stands, for the sake of aesthetics, if it was possibly in a better location, it wouldn't be drowned out as much.
Something like Verre, in a fantasy world, would of looked great with its South profile facing Central park in the Northern direction, like actually on Central Park South (59th Street).
Something those extra 200 ft would of aided, to make it more pronounced. Eh, I guess its what happens in NYC, gems become drowned out in the jungle.
