how many of you out there agree that this is perhaps the best-looking building added to the NYC skyline since the age of the greats (early 1900s-1930s)? My third favorite building in midtown, after Chrysler (naturellement) and ESB. It is so fresh and elegant, much like I.M. Pei's Bank of China tower masterpiece in Hong Kong.
