Sigh. Every skyscraper being built in the US is just: big rectangle, but with slightly irregular geometry to make it "distinctive." It's like high modernism but lacking all conviction, and it seems like a rut we've been in for 25 years now.
Like, if you're going to the trouble to build the tallest building in Texas, wouldn't it be worth adding 1-2% or whatever to the budget to at least give it a truly distinctive profile? You could become an icon for the whole state. Imagine if Frost Bank Tower were a supertall!
