no, i think thats exactly right. plus, inga herself basically said that if you're going to do it, the mormon way is the right way, i.e. pay the premium for authentic construction materials.

on another note, i also love the residential tower, and noticed that in shape and setbacks it resembles the Bell Atlantic Tower, and also relates to Logan Circle at almost the exact same distance and angle as BAT, just rotated 90 degrees. i don't know if I'm explaining myself well. if you look out from the center of the circle facing south, turn left(east) a block and right(south) two blocks, you arrive at Bell Atlantic which faces north. now do the same thing but start in the center facing east, turn left(north) a block and right (east) two blocks, and you arrive at the Mormon residential tower which faces west. its like a small complementary version of BAT.
