I've been at the Woolworth Building many times and share your admiration for it. Elegant and sharp.
I love the Chrysler Building as I said, and Grand Central also. I was pleased when some effort went in to restore the GCT a bit a few years back.
MSG isn't so bad. I don't care for the Javits Center - looks like an architecture student's final class project design to me. Too 'busy.' I actually lamented the loss of The NY Colosseum. What replaced it, more condos?

Time Warner replaced the Coliseum. In truth, it's not a bad looking building. But being an old guy, it'll take me a decade to get used to it. BTW -- Coliseum Books is out of business. They couldn't sustain themselves in their new location, 42 by the library.
They're about to do an expansion of Javitz, adding sq ft.
