Its the single thing i truly dont like on the tower. If they fixed it...Id say it was damned near flawless to me. More interesting than Salesforce...and not a huge glass slab of meh like Comcast's monster in Philly.

Despite being from Philadelphia, I must admit that for me, Wilshire is the sexiest of the three buildings you mentioned. Just really well done - I had my doubts about the spire but even that turned out really well. Congrats!
