I do, however, think the tower is quite elegant.
The USA is probably the worst country in the world in terms of urban planning.

Except old cores of old cities, Everything built in the past 50 years basically involves a shopping mall, endless highways and depressive suburbia.


If I compare 2 modern cities, ( Shenzhen and Phoenix), the first is a great example of density, while the second one is giant suburbia.

You are in a really bad position to do any criticism regard chinese urbanism, considering you come from the country who invented suburbia.
