Yah you're right sbarn, I just looked up what is currently next to the American Stock Exchange building, which is where this proposal would stand it looks like, and the building that currently occupies that space looks beautiful. Would be a real shame to lose it. Plus it looks like its about 20 stories or so itself, so its not like we would even be getting something demonstrably taller with this proposal. Kinda seems like a lose-lose.
