The most beautiful building in your city can be either built, under construction, or concept. It has to have gone to be approved to be accepted.
My two favorites for Vancouver are both 1133 wet georgia and shangri-la, can't decide which, will wait until they are done. Shangri-la is going to be clad in white glass btw.
shangri-la
1133 west georgia.

if you can find a more perfectly beautiful building in chicago, i'd like to see it.
Lake Point Tower is my favorite as "a more perfectly beautiful building in Chicago". A Miesien concept that is nearly 90 years old, the curved lines of the building are as sensual today as they were when built in 1968. (sorry no pic to post see Chicago diagrams and pics).

this one is approved, I think. Libeskind is the architect. The original building is beautiful in and of itself and the sleek tower complements it really well:
the TD Centre (Mies van de Rohe) is strikingly beautiful:
I don't know about it. It looks incomplete. What it needs is a red flamingo to make it perfect.
