When I was in London last month, there was one night I was on the corner by the London Tower and the Shard was towering above it in the distance with it's frosty top lit up with the crown lighting. Yes, I was drunk at the time, but my god it melted my heart.

I see potential for that level of awesomeness here as well.
The equitable building is too average and squat for such a prominent location...it seems out of place whenever viewed... I alwasy thought that site could be ala rockerfeller center type of development if equitable wasn't there
