10/10 Elegant, futuristic, the top part is excellent

8.5

Sleek and tall, but I don't like the dated detailing on the facade or the way it lights up after dark. Gets lots of marks for height, sleekness and overall design/shape.

now that's my type of a postmodern skyscraper! just gotta shorten the spire a bit till it's shorter than boc hk, and it's perfect!

originally 8.5 but now 9.5/10

LOL NEVER!

This is and always will be my star of Hong Kong. I have probably posted in this thread 4 times by now, I'm not sure. Yes I am obsessed with Central Plaza. I also love its matching siblings.

This tower is to me the epitome of post-modern skyscraper design - simply perfect.

One of my favorite buildings in HK. Like the clever triangular design (to increase waterviews) and the facade is a little flashy (or gaudy) but not over the top like on a lot of talls. Nice restraint by the architects. Sleek, stunning with a good spire.

Rapid · August 4th, 2004, 06:25 AM

Spectacular its a 10 because of the night view. Certainly gold just as it's facade.
