I think it looks amazing overall. The only thing I'm apprehensive about is how it's such a tall tower right in front of the rest of the skyline which reduces the layering effect. But skylines change and evolve over time to what can you do.

Not sure what you guys find so appealing about it but I think it's
I like the height but a featureless vertical box that's remniscent of 60/70's brutalist office buildings is not exactly my idea of great architecture
I think you just explained what people find so appealing about it. While it doesn't look brutalist, it does give 60s/70s international style vibes which many of us love. In fact, that's one of my favourite architectural eras.

While reminiscent of mid-century modernism, I think there's some contemporary touch to it.

This building is actually stylish.
