ryanr May 9th, 2003, 08:41 PM For those who do not know, it's not the tallest anymore (the 850ft PBcom Tower surpassed it back in 2000). It is currently the third tallest in the country.
Here's a better pic:

It's the tall one third to the left. And the building in the background just to the right of it, is the current tallest.
7.5 for me.

I like the huge expanse of glass but the top part just spoils the rest of it.

New Jack City August 20th, 2003, 09:50 PM 8.5/10...I like this one! It's base is interesting, the big patch of glass facade is great, while leaving some room for the rest of the building to appear. Great colors too.

7 World Trade December 23rd, 2004, 08:02 PM the masonry facade on this building doesn't seem to match the quality of the glass facade, and the top looks like it doesn't really belong with the rest of the building.
