Given that there was a parking lot where J condo was built, I don’t think landmarking would have stopped it. And since Dock street isn’t in the landmarked area, I don’t think this will stop Waletnas’ project either.
And to each his own, I think seeing the sky reflected in the mirrored glass of J condo on a sunny day is quite beautiful. At least you aren’t left staring at a brick wall with no windows like the Beacon.

i agree with anon, and just like the song “pave paradise, and put up a parking lot”, Dumbo has turned back time and we have our own little shangrila called J Dumpo. Huzzah!!
