I don't know what "haermmm" means, but I love that material. Without it, this would be just another glassy highrise with little distinction aside from some color.
Anyway, it's not precast and it doesn't look anything like brick in real life.

Concerning BP, I am going to bet that they go for the trophy tower as a way to help propagandize their greenness. That would be ideal, because aside from the new building, I would really love to see the Krueck + Sexton remake of the former CBOT building (which has never gotten any love from me). I think they could make that building into something nice, where right now we have quite a dud. This likely won't happen if BP comes in and uses the trading floor for its original purpose.
