This is a great building-its color scheme and shine make it look a lot newer than 1983-9

I've not seen this beauty before. I love the glass and the un-boring indentations.

Stratosphere 2020 October 18th, 2003, 09:46 AM The ground section of the tower could have been much more attractive. 8 out of 10.

I just didn't give 10 because of the base

coldrsx August 23rd, 2004, 09:31 PM 8.5/10
i get to see it everyday and still marvel at it.....there was originally suppose to be a twin to the west, but the oil crisis in the early 80's killed it.

Moren-o January 25th, 2006, 07:16 PM What's the height?
The building is okay, except I think there are just too many setbacks and angles and that doesn't really fit with this sort of glass.

skyperu34 August 11th, 2007, 11:27 PM nice, 7.0
raggedy13 August 12th, 2007, 01:52 AM I like its clean lines and monolithic, highly polished appearance. The base looks a bit bulky and awkward though but perhaps appears better integrated in person. 9/10
