745 Seventh Avenue?
712 Fifth Avenue?
505 Fifth Avenue?
Shearson Lehman?
Moynihan Courthouse?
One Jackson Square?
1055 Park Avenue?
Buildings at NYU and CUNY?
Baruch College?
The MoMA renovations?
This is a worldwide firm less than 40 years old that has done plenty of work in NYC. Or is this just about supertalls?
Personally I like only some their projects (maybe 40%), but to argue that they have not been successful in NYC is a bit uninformed.

I was talking mostly about their skyscrapers. They haven't had much success with skyscrapers in this city.
