It's kind of annoying. Do these people see giant dicks whenever they look at a skyscraper? I can see some reasons to be disappointed with the tower (and even more to be happy about it), but the design looking too much like a dick isn't one of them. The slits make it look less like a dick, if anything...how many dicks are there with a giant slit going down all four sides?

Exactly Tech... my sentiments completely. I think St. Mary's Axe and Torre Agbar look more like penises, but both of those towers are revered in their cities and amonst other skyscraper enthusiasts. If they can somehow incorporate different lighting schemes within the 4 quadrants of the crown it could be pretty fantastic looking during the night.
