I loved this proposal, and was so excited to see it start construction, but as it goes up, I like it less and less. The overall detailing and execution has just been terrible, I just can't get over how bad the metal panels are - just utterly sloppy.

Do you actually think this is quality metal panel work? Is this the quality of work you want to see on a design as well thought out as this?

From what I see, its lazy shop drawing review. The amount of offcuts that could have been avoided are staggering. There are only a number of repeated conditions, and the metal panels could have been standardized, instead it seems they went ad-hoc, or didnt care.

Again overall design is very good, but the execution is just not there.
 
...to be clear though, the spaces in the cladding bother me too. But I haven't ruled out that with a project of this caliber that they wouldn't fine tune things when the tower is more completed for a final polish. So I am willing to wait and see how this will come together at the end of it all before writing it off with the gnashing of teeth.
