I like the additional contrast, and some details come back. So, a win.
I used LR to do the straightening. And it's happy, so I'm happy. The problem appears to be only on the left side, and I think it's because of that reflection in the windows just at the edge. The right side seems to be fully corrected, and the horizontals seem good. The shot isn't important enough to fuss with further; it was an experiment.
