I agree with that. There are some pretty cool buildings going up. I'd just rather see NY do some cool modern buildings on the waterfronts.
I think NY has more than enough complexes with brick, and they could probably go without brick for the next decade to break up the monotony of some of the skyline photos. Large scale projects like this would go a long way to accomplishing this. JMHO though.
