^Their whole argument was "the top doesn't look finished"
First of all, I have no idea what they even meant by that, and second, why was a 200 foot cut necessary to make it "look finished"
Why couldn't that have been accomplished with a simple redesign, but no cut. Or only 50-100 feet cut off etc, etc.
Meanwhile 432 Park Avenue gets to rise 150 feet taller than 1250. And I'm a big fan of that building, but if ever I have seen an "unfinished top" that would be it.
