I know some people like this, but I've never been a fan of the 411 East Wisconsin Center in Milwaukee. It seems lazy, like the architect handed the developer a sheet of graph paper and said, "here you go, build this."
also, this was a trend for awhile that I never liked--attaching a "restaurant-in-the-round" to the top of a hotel, like a UFO just landed on it (this is the Hyatt in Milwaukee):

Apologies if this pinnacle of kitschy trash has already been posted:
How could I have forgotten about the Grand Lisboa! what a piece of architectural crap. Looks even worse in the day believe it or not. Tripadvisor: Lisboa

^damn you beat me too it. Until I moved to Vancouver I had assumed it was a tower obscured by a building.
I don't understand harbor centre. Let's have a building. No wait, a tower. No, a building. No a tower. Wait, lets have a buildower! No, a towlding!

The Economist compared it to the Mos Eisley cantina in the original Star Wars and quotes anthropologist Gordon Mathews: "whereas the illegalities in Chungking Mansions are widely known, the wondrousness of the place is not."

As architecture is obviously subjective I know some people like this building but I sure don't. The saddest thing is, it's just finishing construction in my hometown. It's as though the architect liked a particular style of architecture and then decided to add a different style, and then another, and finally said, "fuck it, i'll just mix them all together"
