Now here's something that pops out of the mediocre Sydney skyline, as I think only a handful of Sydney skyscrapers look nice. 8/10 Fits wonderously well with the World Tower.

just find it a little messy-looking

You really have to see it in the flesh, I mean the cladding to truly appreciate it.

For me, there's a bit too much vent grating on the southern side on the facade (not so much the World Tower side) for my liking.

8.5 from moi.

8/10 The dark color is cool, it fits good with World Tower, looks almost like his little-brother

It fits next too World Tower and the rest of the city. But the tower isn't far too impressive. 7/10

It looks dull and busy at the same time. Confusing, but 7/10

the building turned out far better than what its renderings depicted. i like its rich dark green color that makes it stand out. but the building looks a bit cheap with the spire. they should've just gotten rid of it and build the building 222m to the roof instead.

Looks like a nondescript corporate block. Other than the height, there's nothing too impressive about it.

7/10
