This pos-modern complex, (shopping center and 3 office towers) is the most polemic building in Lisbon's history, and for some the most hated. Construction started: 1983; finished: 1985.

6.5/10

Each by itself is ugly, but the 3 together are impressive.

I think the opposite, each one alone is better then the group, because the base is really ugly, they tried to make a modern "mouro".

Interesting !!

8.5/10

6.5/10 the blue glass are some consolation.

looks like Colon Tower (?) in Madrid. and it's as ugly too

Very interesting and I don't really know what to make of it all.....don't like the mixture of different materials and facade designs.

It needs to taper off at the top, instead of getting fatter. 4.5/10

6/10...not bad

A hulking monstrosity that intrudes upon its surroundings.

I agree that the top is awful. I can't stand buildings that get larger at the top normally and here is no exception.

sorry but it looks terrible 4/10

they actually look much better when you look at them in person...

I must admit I don't really like them.. 5/10

I gave them 7 .. I kinda like them for their boldness in a time when Portugal barely had any high-rises...

6/10.

fascinating tower, 8.5/10

I think the shapes are very bad for all three. 5/10

6/10

Interesting, but too bulky and dark for 3 to be put together.

Really strange... And rather ugly. 5,5/10

Considering that they were built in the 80's, I'll give them a 8.

3/10 sorry

so ugly :(

invasion of the ugly black cubes...

Looks more recent than 1983...

But quite ugly on the whole. Massive but not high enough to be impressive

It's one of the best examples of Post-Modern architecture worldwide IMO,and if you take into consideration it was built in 1983 this is a very modern building for that time.The group of 3 towers with a different one in the middle works very fine!!!
