i do think this building is very lighting dependent. as the pics above illustrate (and the NYT review that came out today mentions), at certain hours and angles it takes on beautiful pink hues. its obviously much starker at mid-day in harsh light.
i do think it will be interesting to see how it ages, especially the landscaping which can do a lot to soften things. millenium park looked a bit awkward when it first opened too and all the saplings and gardens looked fresh and under-developed.
