      Never mind the other replies. International Style and mid-century buildings are under appreciated for the stamp they made on our modernist world. This was a Skidmore Owings Merril building, and it was emblematic of the period. It is a terrible loss, and the building that replaces it is vulgar, lacks restraint, and looks like it was buiilt in the worst of 1990s architectural style.
