This is really well done. The cantilever balances out and creates visual balance with the setback atop the Science Center next door, and the spandrel glazing on the back half is a nice nod to the Science Center as well, tying the two together like a tower to a podium, almost. In terms of scale, I'd admit that this would look pretty cool as 25-30 story tower, but it sits pretty as it is.
