8/10...Looks good, another great art deco skyscraper from the '30s. Nice details and top, the only part I don't like is the side view in the last picture. I love the lighting at night too!

Impressive massing. The top looks a bit unfinished though.

One of the best skyscrapers in the world


Cincinnati is lucky to have this monstrous masterwork


Is it any wonder the city has chosen to leave this as it's tallest building since the 1930's!?!?!?!?

Fine by me. Queen City Square will ruin the skyline!
