This buildings design is perfect, one of the other reasons it needed a mast because its a fatass building for 945 feet and needs a little something to help finish the tapering which tecnically started at 393 feet I believe. This is also executed perfectly along with the Chrysler Building and its spire and the Empire State Building and its mast AND spire (I know its used for communication too).

Also, who also wishes they'd finish up whatever it is they are doing on the belcony along the northern part of the roof? A lot of it is still wrapped in white and still seems like things are changing up there. This really is a complex building! The roof on this one even tapers! However so do the roofs on the 40 Wall Street, the Chrysler Building, and the Empire State Building before topping out at their heights along with other buildings which indeed is a tradition that the NYC skyline has always followed!
