This is my favoritest recent Philadelphia skyscraper. Its detailing gives it a retro appearance, which, given its site (surrounded by Art Deco and modernist buildings) is entirely proper and appropriate: a structure that respects its context. It is also a focal point of view from the Comcast plaza. I honestly don't know why anyone would hate it.
