Alright--I don't intend to spam this thread with images of every single midrise I like, but the Wrigley Building needs to be mentioned!

mr_storms · December 23rd, 2005, 06:24 PM

***wjfox*** · December 23rd, 2005, 08:01 PM

The Lloyds Building deserves a mention.

95m tall, designed by Richard Rogers. All the pipes, cables, lifts, etc. are fitted on the outside - the building is literally "inside out"!

mr_storms · December 23rd, 2005, 08:07 PM

Waterclub tower in Toronto is a real nice one.

Lastresorter · December 30th, 2005, 09:39 PM

I'm not sure if this office building qualifies. Please discuss.

Guthrie Pavillion (40m), Shah Alam, Malaysia.

***wjfox*** · December 30th, 2005, 10:05 PM

As long as the building has a pinnacle height of 35-149m, it qualifies for this contest.

Roof heights don't matter - as long as the highest point on the building is 35m+.
