To each their own, I just think it looks out of place.

I agree. It's kind of meh for me. I'll reiterate my earlier suggestion which PMC obviously has ignored. They should have designed it as a step-like building similar to Dockside or
this neat building in Brooklyn, which would have allowed for a taller building without walling off Center City from the river. Of course, this would have required PMC to be creative...
What I'd like to know however, is what they plan on doing on the
southside of the building along 24th Street. It has a lot of potential for a restaurant/bar with outdoor seating.
