If it were not the cube it would not be open at the top, doesn’t make much sense to cover the sides and not the top given you know rain and stuff

^Haha yep, I was admiring the building yesterday and it appears the formwork is off. Ladies and Gents I think we have ourselves a cube. It is iconic and if left as it currently is, we'll be seeing it in skyline illustrations, TV/film shots, tourist/architecture advertisements for years to come.

ahhh thanks. Yeah that looks pretty good I guess.

I think I was expecting something more... flashy?... based on all the discussion. Can't blame the descriptions though, it really is a cube!

Looks like I am going to get a "cube view" from my apartment window

Edit: first time posting but can't seem to inset image correctly. Will figure out, but happy to be new to the forum.

^Welcome to the forum.

Right click on image, copy image address, click on SSP Photo icon, paste address accordingly. It'll look roughly like this when you post:
