I honestly think the original 1155' version (pre-1250') would be perfect in Denver, both in terms of height and complementing/suggesting the Rocky mountains. Do it!

What every city needs is a megalomaniacal billionaire patron saint to adopt it and shower it with projects like this.

Can we get one in Philly?

Seriously though, I'm trying to visualize what this tower will look like from Top of the Rock (or the ESB, for that matter) once it's completed. From Top of the Rock, you should get a pretty good view close up.

Unbelievable photos. Is there really any city in the world that can match the combination of density, height, organization and variety of building/landscape like NYC can? I think not.
