Which I'm still on the fence about. I appreciate it's an extremely historical building, but it also looks like this right now. Stunning:
Easier to justify reworking/trying to preserve when it's worked into the theme of the building replacing it, and there is enough vacant land in the east village that it doesn't disrupt natural growth of the city upwards (which is one of the big problems with heritage buildings in the core - you can keep the facade if its unique, but keeping a building on prime office tower land is an issue).
Still, I personally wouldn't be too upset if it had been taken out entirely. Ted Mosby would be so upset with me.
