On closer inspection, the Pelli Clarke design definitely seems to be the most traditional, although it appears that the top floors are some kind of wind turbine? Not sure though. Still, if one of these supertalls would work in our risk averse city, it would be this one. Too traditional for my taste though.

The tower by SOM (3rd tower), while visually striking, appears to sit on "spider legs" that appear very similar, at least in concept, to those on the Transamerica Pyramid. Perhaps they were trying to draw from the city's current tallest building? Regardless, it would certainly make a very dramatic entrance into the building, and would also be a looker when one would step out of the Transbay Terminal. It's definitely the best one out of the 3, imho.

Second tower...still looks really ugly. Seriously don't know how we wasted a design slot on that one.

Maybe it's just me, but was anyone else expecting something...more from these designs?
