^^ I guess. Ironically, it's only because those buildings were built at the same time as other Brutalist buildings around the country and world (and in Robocop).

I guess that makes it Texan as much as it makes it Bostonian or Washingtonian (DC - plenty of Bruatalist buildings there).
I've been in two of the above buildings (ITC and UTSA library) and both felt cold, dark and uninviting. After having been in them once, I never wanted to go back. I live in Boston and have zero intention of ever stepping foot inside Boston City Hall because it looks so uninviting and uncomfortable. Even the plaza around it is ugly and uninviting.
If people want the ITC to be a landmark with the result of all that land not being able to be used for something else/better in perpetuity, then send your voting vibes to the committee making the decision.
