I just love how inconsistent the facade is, it looks different from every side, it's just so unique, like LMich said, it doesn't try to be anything else but itself. It signaled the start of a new renaissance for Time Square and yet despite it's prominent location I think it gets looked over quiet a bit. My only problem with the building is the top four squares, I just wish they were always filled with advertisements like the renderings suggested, I remember when the building was going up I was excited to see how the top would look like, but today it looks a bit unfinished, except the side with the 4 Times Square logo.

There another logo atop tower for a while, but it seems like it was removed a while back.
