Michigan National Tower: Lansing,MI
 
I give it a 7/10. Interesting but not fantastic. The base area makes it look like a fortress. It's very inaccessible.

9 years to built?What took it so long?

A decent box 6.0/10

james2390 August 23rd, 2003 10:32 PM

thats screwed up, the world trade center page on skyscrapers.com says the worlds tallest pentagonal building, and the jp morgan chase page says worlds tallest 5 sided building

if this was a box, it would have been rated lower by me. the shape is kinda a +, but the facade is just :down:

A pentagon must have 5 regular and equal sides. I guess the JP Morgan is 5-sided but not a pentagon.

6/10 for this. Dont like the top.

Slap some white paint on it and you have a giant beekeepers box.

4.5/10
It's interesting that this is the tallest pentagonal building in the world, but other than that this building has no special features, and has a boring design. The colour is ugly too (but it is improved by sunlight). :down:
