Thanks for putting words in my mouth I didn't say. There are plenty of glass buildings that look as dated as SOME ( like I actually said ) of the stone and reflective window buildings we had built before 2000. Brookfield Place in its current form would look ridiculous had it not been clad in glass. It would be nice to see some more stone structures but we can't expect developers to turn their backs on current trends just to ad variation to a skyline as nice as that would be.

In the future I would appreciate it if you didn't twist my words.

BTW I agree with almost everything you said.
