Nice picture. The museum just looks like a massive thumbs up from that angle.

Looking at it from the south yes it does kinda look like a middle finger... I would say more like one of those German helmets, though. But from this angle it’s a thumbs up... the three sections of the cloud as the inwardly curved fingers with the tower as a thumb... looks nothing like a middle finger at all from this angle.

LOL. I've always been amused and dismayed that the narrow pointy spar on that bridge brought the Freudian out in some folks. I always thought they should visit their urologists asap.

Crazy watching workers up on ladders right on the floor plate edge of the 33 floor with these winds. I watched them over the lunch hour.

Those railings are the mock-ups to ensure fit for the final order

Funny how in 1st picture from a little farther away and angle tower looks more imposing than the 2nd picture which is taken just a little closer . Definitely changes the feel of Main Street !
