heirloom December 5th, 2002, 10:26 PM 5.5/10
looks pretty shabby for a tower built in the 90's... the lacy stuff at the bottom of the tower and the bland and untiled facade makes the building look as if it were built in the 60's, when asia was still poor...
Bob di Gills December 5th, 2002, 10:45 PM not that bad
6/10
renell December 8th, 2002, 10:00 PM Forgot what I gave it. Its a bit plain but i like it.
Daniel8ty8 December 8th, 2002, 10:25 PM Not a bad building. More like something you'd find in Atlantic City, but taller...
6.5
Kevinkhoo1986 December 12th, 2002, 10:18 AM 8.5 for me!!~ :angel1:
Liz L December 12th, 2002, 01:34 PM The slim shape of the tower gives it good height, though it might look a bit stocky broadside on...The facade is not bad, but it's a bit bland, and the base, IMO, is dull and blocky - 7.5/10
It could use a few setbacks, and some more detailing on the facade.
SeeMacau January 1st, 2003, 06:28 AM I like it!!

Pengui April 28th, 2005, 03:22 PM Very nice height impression, even on the broad side. Good proportions. Otherwise, a bit outdated. Not one of KL's best.

We were luck y enough and on the same floor there was a space in reconstruction - so we got to admire the city from high above.
