It's Nashville. Somehow developers find ways to build boxes and stay at or below 30 stories. The latter is already the case with this project. However, as I posted on Urban Planet, I hope that with SOM being used for design that we'll see something unique. Here's a link to some of their projects:

There is one design that is not to extreme for Nashville that I'd like to see an alternate version of it proposed. It's the China Merchants Tower.
Just imagine if 505 had this design how much more impressive it would be. Still pretty much a box, but with distinctive architecture that draws attention to it. Anyway, a triangular version of this might be interesting for the SoBro site, even if they did they altered the height of each section.
