On the other hand, there may be other reasons to dislike the design, but the involvement of Hilton makes them all suspect. To me, the best solution is to build the 16-story tower BECAUSE Hilton dislikes it.

Right on. I agree with you, and with the rest as well. As I said before, I'm not sure about the design of the building yet because I cant really make it out from just that one picture, but I very much side with education on this one. I've never had the chance to witness the Hilton in person, but from that article, it looks like a dark, dirty, and abandoned concrete box. I find it hard to believe some people are actually siding with Hilton on this one. They should destroy the Hilton and put this in its place
