Herbert Muschamp points out "the failure of architects to respond with sufficient urgency to a crisis that preservation alone cannot resolve. Preservation is great, but where's the creative intelligence going to come from? The architectural community should respond more aggressively when alterations in design and function are contemplated for a building of this caliber."
