Very good for a 70s design. Nice and futuristic for then.

Corporate architecture.

It's actually two different towers, but they set it up so it looks like one.

the shape is good. the twins look interesting from all sorts of angles, a rarety in the box-era. the extremely small gap looks cool too.

This is one of my favorite buildings in Houston. From most angles, it looks like one building, but NO, SIREE! Well.. actually, it is technically ONE building.. nevermind.

8.5/10. Interesting thing about it is that Pennzoil Pleace is the only building known as this: Siamese Twin Towers joined at the triangle base.
