AUSTIN | Misc. Discussions - No Politics

[randalls]

Okay, so I have the dumbest/nerdiest question for you guys, but I'm genuinely interested to hear all of your individual answers to this hypothetical question - if you have the time to answer it.

The question is, if you could steal any 5 towers from other cities in the U.S. and integrate them into the Austin skyline, which towers would you steal and where would you place them (especially if you could ignore CVC's)?

For me, I think it would go something like this.

1. Chrysler Building
-I'd place it on that open lot at Congress & 3rd (if it would fit)
2. Seattle Space Needle
-I'd put it on the Austin-American Statesman site next to the bridge
3. Empire State Bldg.
- I think I'd want to find a lot that complimented the State Capitol Bldg somehow.
4. TransAmerica Building
- I'd put it on one of those empty parking lots near Guadalupe & 9th/10th St.
5. Flatiron Building
- I'm not sure where this would best fit, but it would be an awesome addition.
