I agree that the ESB is the greatest overall especially when historical context is taken into account.
The American International Building would give the Woolworth competition as the greatest downtown skyscraper.
Perhaps the Woolworth is the greatest gothic skyscraper ever (and the Chicago Tribune is the 2nd greated gothic skyscraper). The fact that it was the world's tallest from 1913-1929 does guarantee its noteworthyness.
