Exactly. I don't want to see anymore fighting with aquablue. If you have disagreements about the building, fine. But enough with the personal stuff.

Hey, ny guy, I know what I see on the renders, just like you, and to me it won't be on the same iconic level as the crysler. I do not understand what you mean by, " ..building will be far more than you know"? Sounds a bit patronizing honestly. Do you know something that we don't, do you have other renders that I have not seen? It obviously is a great building, but it will never be considered the icon the crysler is by most in my opinion. That's more than just a design issue too. There are many reasons, including heritage. The Chrysler is the epitome of Art Deco beauty from the period. This tower attemps to use elements of an older style and it works very well but does not match the old beauty. I think the average member of the public will agree. I'd bet a good amount that in 50 years the Chrysler will still be considered by architectural historians as being on a level above any of these new towers going up today
And in reference to your last point, Anybody spouting personel attacks on me can go to hell. I won't be wasting my time reading them, life is too valuable for that nonsense.
