With the location and angles, it will stand out in a lot of views, however from Jersey I think it will eventually be lost. I can think of when I was a kid and the Chrysler was a clear, awesome point in the skyline with the windows lit and now it does not stand out the way it used to. Part of that is the new dominance of the HY area on the skyline from the other side of the Hudson.
I am 100% in for all the progress and want the skyline to keep building and expanding. However, some of these amazing designs need to be highlighted better. This one with the extra 200 ft or so would have been amazing. It is still beautiful, but one I'll probably have to come into the city or view from other angle to enjoy.
End rant, signed spoiled Jersey resident who loves the views.

The good thing about this one is that there are many places around the tower where you can just sit and enjoy the view.
