The New York skyline is seen from a number of angles, most often not the ones we generally think of. This building will matter more than others because it will be the most visible. As is currently planned, the apex doesn't do this city or it's skyline justice. But it will be what it will be. It will be thrown into the mix same as the others. It just should have been a better representation of a skyline defining tower in New York.
