The (mostly) column-free design for the base on building 1 was necessary to avoid the train tracks below IIRC. I'm sure the cost savings involved with avoiding those huge cantilevers on building 2 played a big part in the design for its base.
I think both bases are nice. The column-free design is admittedly more striking, but I don't need two side by side. I like that they're similar with variations on the wide-open lobby theme, and I think they compliment each other well enough.
