7/10 It looks very nice at night, but I don't like the sides without windows

Looks like a blander version of MLC.

Yeah, too much expanse of concrete (designed in the 70s). Definitely spruces up @ night. 7.5

actually I quite like this...its not often you get to see such stuff anymore, and they made it interesting by having the glass run all the way up and I like the cross-bracing in the design. More interesting than the predictable MLC.

It's sturdy looking, the large blank faces are balanced by the large glass sections, and the top is industrial looking. For some reason, I like this tower. 8/10.

I'm a traditional hater of concrete, yet I'm a lover of glass! So this combination gives off a very interesting mix! It looks very sophisticated and dominant and it's grown on me alot over the years!

I like how it looks sort of futuristic. Its kind of reminding me of an elevator shaft!

8/10 Like the contrast of the glass and concrete. The signage on top is a little tacky.

Nothing that special, the sides without windows make it look un-attractive.

Can this thread be changed to "Suncorp Place". Naming rights have changed over 2 years ago.
