I'd really need for someone to explain to me why they object to this. Even if I try to find fault with it, I just end up liking it more.

I tend to agree, however it would have been nice if they had kept the glass color green. I've always said that Austin is in need of more green towers and glass facade to represent our greenery. We have blue representing water and sky, grey for clouds, lots of browns, tans and limestone to represent the hills and dirt. Now we need green and not just a light hint of green, but a nice medium or deep green.
