Pomimo tego, że znajduje się bardzo blisko Carnegie Hall Tower i Metropolitan Tower, jest dobrze widoczny z Central Parku. Problemów przysporzyła kopuła, która znajduje się na dachu wieżowca. Krótko po wprowadzeniu się pierwszych mieszkańców zgłaszali oni dziwny dźwięk dochodzący ze szczytu budynku. Dźwięk ten był spowodowany wiejącym po kopulastym dachu wiatrem. Problem ten został szybko rozwiązany.Zobacz też lista najwyższych budynków w Nowym Jorku lista najwyższych budynków w Stanach Zjednoczonych lista najwyższych budynków na świecie
