I think we have a winner!
So what is this, 5(?) major tower projects all within a couple of blocks of each other this decade? And all of them an improvement on our downtown (some less than others, admittedly). And anchored by the already-impressive Canterra. This is going to be one hell of a nice part of downtown in 5 years.

Am I missing any?

Thats kind of harsh. I have given a pretty good rational for why I dislike the building. Your inability to process/understand that which I have stated seems to be the larger issue. I respect you opinion to like the building, and can understand why some would. In return I'd appreciate you not unfairly citing my preferences as questionable without asserting a half decent answer as to why you believe me to be wrong. A laughing smiley is a laughable response to what has so far been an intriguing conversation. Tell me why I am wrong freeweed, and I will respect the answer if it has any merit.
Heres a concise list detailing my reasoning:
-unimaginative derivation of antiquated ideals
-unrepresentative of todays technology/sensibilities
-lacking in a conceptual basis that challenges anything existing
-Not honest to the time it was designed, the location it is to be erected, or to the occupants inside
Shall I continue? Or have I given you enough to consider?
