This is largely my problem with the tower. The base is fine, but it completely wimps out approaching the top. From the skyline perspective, we're left with a weird pointy cowlick thing, as though it's reaching to the top of the skyline. Maybe the Trump Tower could pull that idea off if it was taller than FCP.I don't have too much of a problem with this building. It looks kind of retro-80s which is kind of cool. The only part I'm not sure about is the little doo-dad on the top. I like doo-dads fine, but just not this one...looks a little awkward to me.
Perhaps if our city had an Architectural Review Board, that wouldn't happen. Honestly, I'd rather have see negativity encouraging better design, rather than self-congratulatory sycophant circle-jerks (no offense).Half of these treads are filled with negative comments about EVERYTHING. Gets a bit tiresome after a while, especially when you go to other cities threads and you don't see it.
I don't mean to say that internet message boards can stop things like Metropolis from happening, but could we at least have the dignity to not welcome every half assed project into this city in the pursuit of "world class" status?
Sorry for the off-topic.
