[PBuchman]

Pelli gets my vote. I think his tower's simple, tapering geometric form is an ideal complement to the TransAmerica Pyramid at the other end of the skyline. I also think that his adherence to more traditional geometric forms will more likely withstand the test of time than will the more abstract looking SOM proposal. Like BT, however, I have concerns about how much use a six-story public park would actually get.

SOM's design is very nice too, but I have to say that I dislike Rogers' intently. The red lattice work looks like a set of construction elevators.
