;) Maybe the clouds attracted her attention more than the building. It looks like dark clouds, maybe she's worried about the rain :p

It was taken by my brother as he was raising the skybridge.

The boxy Parade tower looks more like renderings with the black balconies. I really wish they had clad the balconies on both of the towers in a darker or lighter material, to highlight the alternating strips of them. The buildings are so bland otherwise.

Either way, they look much better now with the skybridge installed.
 
It's a shame that Parade lacks design accents along its neutral grey facade, which looks greyer than the average glass-clad tower. The renderings showed the horizontal lines of the podium with a bright orange colour, but what we got is such a neutral shade of orange that it might as well be beige. The connecting bridge and the sleek flat roofs look great. The complex's silhouette and positioning in the neighbourhood looks like it's supposed to be a centrepiece; however, a centrepiece shouldn't have such neutral cladding. It's overly grey and neutral in any daytime lighting conditions.
