Mobile is very lucky to be getting such a classy building. Any city would be, actually. I think it would deserve its hype all on its own, even if it weren't being built in a place that doesn't immediately rise to mind when you think of quality modern architecture. In fact, I wonder if this building wouldn't be lost in the shuffle it was going up in Miami, or Atlanta, or Charlotte. I'm glad that it's receiving the attention it deserves -- and it's probably getting that attention partly for where it's being built.
Go Mobile! Asheville would sure be lucky to be getting such a nice building. Up here our historic architecture is to die for but our modern buildings mostly just plain stink.
