this tower looks fat, not very sleek depending on the angle you see it from.

I don't see fat in any angle but that's just me. My only problem is I wish it was still the circle and not a square but other than that it's perfect.

well, if you look at it from the North East, or South West, it will look fat, but those are the 2 greatest views of the city. Fat is nice to me.
