Is y and p involved with the outside of the 4s??
Well to each their own... I just like the contrast. Too much shiny would be tiresome on the eyes. The stone they used and its rough, grainy texture provides a lovely counterpoint to the shiny, smooth glass.
I like the slate too. Uptown's granite is one of the poorest examples of stone application I've seen; somehow they managed to make polished black granite look disgraceful (much like the entire project itself).
I think once all the glass and finishing touches have been installed, and cleaned up, 4S's base will look even better.
Just replace the fins with crenellations and machicolations!
