Nope, not the Empire or the WTC/replacement even though
they're extra tall. In popular entertainment the building
seen most often is the Chrysler building with the big
griffin heads near the top.
It just LOOKS better, cooler. The newer ones, even
though taller, just look too "utilitarian". The CB
still had a little "art" in its design.
Something modern designers should consider.
Although the Birge IS pretty cool ... a brilliant
lightning bolt headed up ......
