Well you can't please everybody and I'm one of those people! Besides, America invented the skyscraper and the ACC was very American looking and it looked to be a Philadelphia icon until many NIMBYs, the city and state govt, and the economy gave the ACC an untimely death. CITC, for all its worth, won't enliven Arch St nor will it really enhance the Philadelphia skyline, it's just filler.
Besides, the new Transbay Tower looks much better and more professional than te CITC, and that's saying a lot!
