Brandon, I appreciate your humor, but all I said was a modest winged statue on top of the 88 story tower, maybe 20-40 feet tall, might be suitable. A statue the size of the figure of Wm. Penn on top of Philadelphia City Hall, something on that scale. Not necessarily an angel, although we are the "city of angels" after all and this project is "angel's landing". If not an angel, how about a "winged victory" ("Nike") figure or a female "Olympia" statue to honor the upcoming 2028 Olympics?
Even more than the statue, my main suggestion is that the tower should perhaps taper to a pointed top or crown, or at least include a spire taking the height to 1200-1250' or so. A new high point on the skyline. A 20-40' winged angel or "Olympia" statue on top would be the cherry capping the sundae.
