Says the AP, "The new design's highlights are a reduction in the overall mass of the building, the main entrance along an East-West corridor on 32nd Street, increased public space along 11th Avenue and a semi-opaque glass structure that hovers around the internal building acting as a 'veil.'"
Plus, it smokes!
