9/10. 1 Liberty Place looks really sweet in Philly. The child skyscraper of its parent, Chrysler Building has a post-modern art deco design. One point off for falling 55 feet of its 1000 feet tall goal.

8.5/10, Absolutely stunning, although the top looks a tad botched.

One Liberty vs Bank of China

Is that a similar type of lighting that the two buildings are using to emphasize their lines?

8. Loses a point because of its oversized mini-me. (Maxi-me?)

This is truely a Houston original...

By which I mean designed after the Bank of the South West Tower in Houston, The proposal won a design competition 1982, but was never built. The "romantic modernist" design was a precursor to other Murphy/Jahn skyscrapers such as Park Avenue Tower (New York), One and Two Liberty Place (Philadelphia), and MesseTurm (Frankfurt).
