Last is the most interesting- also the most difficult to make - as it is a modern building built on top of an old post office that was made along with grand central station. However, the design beautifully incorporates old style with modern elements. Personally, I could not find any existing 3d models of this one

What is interesting about it is that its base is the only surviving aspect of the "Grand Central City" other than the terminal itself: here is a postcard of what I am talking about:

Second would be the new york life insurance building - it's a gold-crowned architectural marvel

Third is 230 Park- aka Helmsley Building- amazing, amazing building. The grand central viaduct runs right through it! It would be really awesome if someone could make a building that cars can actually drive through in the game!
