I always resist the urge to criticize designs, at least ones that aren't happening in my own city because I don't believe on stepping someone's toes, but man, I was really not a fan of 432 Park. I know there are designs that can start a trend that are later put into other buildings, but 432 Park is really one that I never would have guessed would catch on. I certainly haven't "gotten it" yet, and why the design of it would be imitated is confusing and even more offensive than 432 Park was. These designs are worthy of a 400 foot building buried somewhere in the canyons of New York, not peaking over the entire metro.
