Moving the castle was actually a plot point. The Gargoyles had been cursed to remain stone "until the castle rose above the clouds". Sticking it atop a skyscraper did the trick. Xanatos had reason to believe that it would work (and having already met Demona, knew Gargoyles were real. In fact she's the one who told him about the curse). To the average person, it was just a multi-millionaire showing off.
I always liked it because it was more than just another cartoon. Events of past episodes affected later ones, (most of) the villains had motivations greater than just "I'm Evil", and they didn't feel the need to explain the moral of the story in 10ft tall billboards. They also had some interesting closed time loops in the later seasons.
