Oh great, a place like Seattle has it’s beautiful Space Needle and tasteless buffoons in Miami settle for the first ugly POS this guy presents to them.
The FAA says Brickell One at 1049ft is an interference but this giantass 1000ft ugly toenail clipper isn’t?
WTF kind of drugs is the entire city of Miami on?

I hope Berkowitz can never raise the $400 Million from overseas investors to build this "monstrosity" Take this crap to Orlando or Atlantic City!
One day in the future we probably could not imagine Miami without Skyrise. This is what people thought back in the day about the iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris: "We, writers, painters, sculptors, architects and passionate devotees of the hitherto untouched beauty of Paris, protest with all our strength, with all our indignation in the name of slighted French taste, against the erection … of this useless and monstrous Eiffel Tower … To bring our arguments home, imagine for a moment a giddy, ridiculous tower dominating Paris like a gigantic black smokestack, crushing under its barbaric bulk Notre Dame, the Tour Saint-Jacques, the Louvre, the Dome of les Invalides, the Arc de Triomphe, all of our humiliated monuments will disappear in this ghastly dream. And for twenty years … we shall see stretching like a blot of ink the hateful shadow of the hateful column of bolted sheet metal."
