Tha facade is alright, but the building altogether is too plain.

Looks pretty cool. 7/10

5.5/10

looks pretty shabby for a tower built in the 90's... the lacy stuff at the bottom of the tower and the bland and untiled facade makes the building look as if it were built in the 60's, when asia was still poor...

Bob di Gills · December 5th, 2002, 10:45 PM

not that bad

6/10

renell · December 8th, 2002, 10:00 PM

Forgot what I gave it. Its a bit plain but i like it.

December 8th, 2002, 10:25 PM

Not a bad building. More like something you'd find in Atlantic City, but taller...

6.5

Kevinkhoo1986 · December 12th, 2002, 10:18 AM

8.5 for me!!~

Liz L · December 12th, 2002, 01:34 PM

The slim shape of the tower gives it good height, though it might look a bit stocky broadside on...The facade is not bad, but it's a bit bland, and the base, IMO, is dull and blocky - 7.5/10
It could use a few setbacks, and some more detailing on the facade.
