The building's lighting scheme is brilliant. Subtle yet powerful. It looks like raindrops when it's purple.

The lights are a welcome surprise! There is nothing really groundbreaking about the design of these buildings, but they certainly didn't skimp on pizazz.

Is that red structure a version of the 'Monument to the Third International'?

Seems to closely resemble La Defense in Paris.

A really wonderful highrise cluster. Looks good day or night.

Same lack of homogeneity in style and scale indeed.
I like the dramatic touch in Moscow. La Défense is timid, lacklustre, self-effacing.

Wow, this is one of the most beautiful multi-tower developments I have ever seen. Love the nighttime lighting and the giant digital clock on the side. Way to go Moscow.

This building is the best use of LED lighting that I have ever seen! It's not too overwhelming and really accents an otherwise fairly straightforward tower. Keep it up Moscow!
