nice building.. alto nufin special.. look taller than it should.. 7/10

6/10

Yup, he was not too good at this "tall" thing. The forms are not so bad. But the materials, the proportions, the details...not good. FLW doing a skyscraper just doesn't even sound right.

looks pretty cool. Why didn't they make this one taller?

6/10

this was more of a test for him in form and design .. . this tower is in a city of only about 30,000!!

The design doesn't impress me 5/10.

7.5/10

It looks ugly closeup but the effect it has from a distance seems effective.

I ve seen much better from that time

Very good with the huge amount of angles it has, and it's shape. The facade is too plain though.

7/10

Bah, not so nice! 6/10

Wasn't this building declared unsafe? I heard it's just used for storage now.

7/10

it's OK;)

It does have some interesting features to ponder over and some nice textures. I mean, even the spire is textured! Because of its unboringness-> 8/10

Interesting. The farther away you get from it, the more modern and newer it looks, but as you get close, looks like it needs a good bath. Neat design though. 8/10.

Wrights home in Pennsylvania is much netter! 5

:poke: :wtf: Well it looks kinda old,(It is old)cheap and UGLY!
3.5/10

This Building is nice IMO. I dont look at how it looks but how it was meant to look.

Its not your average looking building, but it doesn't impress me too much. 6.0/10

i like its details... its cool, wish we had something like that arround here...

3/10 This building is a disaster. No wonder he stayed away from scrapers!

A 9,5 for this nice building.

This building is so unique, in a good way. It was ahead of it's time, and offers no boring angles. The materials are interesting, and it's not a boring box.

I give it an 8 for creativity.

7/10

well it is built in '56... during the box era. not bad for it's era

he is my master, so i give to him 10/10
for the building 9/10

5/10


I don't like it :ohno:

Evidently designed with care and vision.
It still looks fresh and original in an unforced and logical manner......stylish !

9/10

The overall concept is amazing, especially for its time. But the facade and the colors are kind of scary, I'll be really nice and give it a 8/10.

Cool design .. 8/10
