Does anybody know which building is represented all the way on the right, with the red “V”-ish-looking thing?

    It’s the Verizon building. See here: http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/05/23/giving-up-the-ugliest-skyscraper-title/

    It’s the Verizon building, in lower Manhattan. See the Verizon check?

    My guess is the building facing union square park with the sweeping “arm” with a giant whole in the middle.

    I got, it’s the Museum of Arts and Design. See the pattern in the bricks going up from the bottom.

    Yes, I think it is the Verizon building, but when taken in the context of the other two buildings I thought, what musuem do people hate.

    It’s 375 Pearl St., by the Brooklyn Bridge.
