I love the setbacks and the roof! It also looks impressive in the skyline.
renell March 5th, 2003, 05:05 PM it got some height.. but nothing special 6.5
The Messiah March 10th, 2003, 09:07 PM From here the facade looks a bit cheap.And it aint't that special..
7.0/10

Evergrey April 8th, 2003, 07:19 PM 9.5 Tiny DesMoines can be proud to have this lofty and attractive skyscraper! This building gets more and more interesting as you go skyward... setbacks and cutaways leading to more interesting discoveries... culminating in that classic crown!

nice :)
Lmichigan September 7th, 2003, 08:04 PM This building looks much better from far away, at night or both. But when you start to zoom in on it you can see that the facade looks very cheap. It may be impressive that a tower of this height is in Des Moines, but the tower itself is not that impressive to me.
6.5/10

Sigh is so sad that San Jose, with almost 5x demoines population, doesnt have a building 1/2 that height. The faa is soooo evil
