The centerpoint of Los Angeles is really quite embarrassing to anyone who's been to a Chicago or NYC. The final verdict; the tower has an immense lack of imagination (where ARE you Hollywood?). The architect firm, who made a career of making non-serious buildings for non-serious people, were inspired by the shape of a car transmission as the crowning achievement of the most illustrious city in the world. The obviously-late 80's endless-pastel-nightmare color scheme will trap the LA skyline in that decade forever. This is a dreadful building and an eyesore to the gods of the San Andreas fault. I can see why they blew it up in the film Independence Day!

Oh Brother

Another tired rip on the US bank tower. Obviously another east coster hate trip.
The US tower is fine and hollywood loves. I've been to Chicago, the buildings are tall but placed in a messy order and New York only has two building of beauty surrounded by architectural noise and clutter. Oh you forgot to add the Freedom tower to that list. That is the most uninspiring square peg shoved in a round hole design I've ever seen, that site deserves better peace out.
