I agree with you 100 percent! At one point, I had some infatuation with this building, in terms of its height as well as its architecture. In general, Pittsburgh's buildings have quite a bit of character. I think Pittsburgh's ugliest building is the sprawling eyesore that is Allegheny Center. Apparently urban planning was an after thought in Pittsburgh during the 1960s...
I think the real winner here (or loser) is the colossal architectural abomination that is the Pima County Legal Services Bldg in Tucson, posted above!
