Totally spoiling the historical ensemble surrounding it. NYC loses more and more of its once unique character! Just due to a blind urban development.

(Btw, I know NYC is a city of contrasts, blah blubb... It may be so, but this place was just a great unspoiled area of the very first record highrises and skyscraper developments of the world. Why afflict it with such a random, plain ugly glass box? )
Yea, New York should be frozen and put under a dome and there should be no more development in the city.

You think this is an "ugly box" but there are some that think the Metlife is an old POS. I certainly don't think so, but we all have different tastes.

I (and most) think One Madison Park is beautiful and it would terrible if NYC was nothing but old buildings.
