7/10...I like the glass facade and colors, though the base is overdone and too big and I don't like the other color of the buildng and that Modis sign could have done better!

Looks futuristic, almost like something you'd see in Asia, but I don't really like the sloping base. The building almost reminds me of a computer tower.

But then again, it's definitely origional and grabs your attention, so I'll be nice and give it a 7.

(Also, for once a sign that looks nice on the building!)

(Another edit: That building is growing on me already.)

It aint all that pretty, but its surely very controversial and attention-grabbing.

Thanks for helping out savethewtc:)

8.5/10. It's what got me into skyscrapers (very long story.) I love buildings with giant logos on top too.

The over-sized base makes this beauty 0 from 10.

It's an alright building in of itself, but it's a bit lackluster to be marked as the signature tower of the Jacksonville skyline.
