The friggin' antenna screwed the whole building! I would've given it a much higher score. 6.0/10

Haha i agree X-seed 4000.I think that the tower with the antenna looks a bit weird.It actually doesn't even look like a tower.More like one big antenna :) 5.0/10

The frontal views of the building remind me of a syringe.

Anyway, the tower looks very slender and the lighting at night looks attractive, but that antenna's really distracting me.

That's what it is, actually, no one lives in this tower ;-)
It's a telecommunication tower, hence the antenna ^^

7.5! I don't get this tower it certainly is different, the spire is over the top but its a good different scraper.

Wow! o.O Because it is that slim, it looks much taller than it really is! Like 300 m or something...
Really great - apart from the antenna... Which makes it a 8 of 10!

10/10, I think this antenna complete this beautiful skyscraper, especially at night. During the day the tower looks like a simple blue crystal, and at night it becomes so sophisticated, I like this contrast. Thanks for these photos !
