One ultra-cool part of the tower is the 10 million pixel TV screen in the lobby, here are some pics:

I'm not so sure about the 'blends in Philadelphia skyline' bit. From some angles, yes, but the huge black square hole at the top? Why???
Well that's about the only thing I don't like about this building. It has otherwise nice shapes and materials and the lobby does look spectacular (thanks for posting those).
7.5/10

Gave it a 9. Decent size, clean lines, not exciting, but is handsome, nonetheless.

Great facade. I personally don't like the square, but it really is a nice tower. It goes well with the rest of the skyline. 9/10
