That red building (CNA) in downtown Chicago that puts Seattle ahead of Chicago for 2nd best skyline in the US imo.



Reminds me of Sim City. Can't place a building there.

It does look like it's giving some kind of tile error

Also going to add The Shard in London as well. I don't hate the building, it just doesn't fit the skyline at all. It would look great in Tokyo or Hong Kong where it's surrounded by other tall ultramodern skyscrapers, but in London it looks really off.

The ALICO building was a fine old building until they added on the lower floor "decor."

It also survived a direct hit from an F4-F5 tornado.

set the tone of the downtown skyline the way the previous twin towers did.


I'd just like to reiterate my point about the "Freedom Tower" compared to the "Twin Towers":





The "Freedom Tower" might be taller, maybe even more sophisticated, but it pales in comparison to this. The height and grandiosity of these buildings stood enormous, gigantic and proud.

As the financial and art capital of the world, New York should have done better than the Freedom Tower.

The Twin Towers were always considered eyesores......not that the freedom tower is any better.

Never liked the look of the original twin towers. They didn't fit the skyline at all.

The ugliest things in Columbus are probably Lincoln and Morrill towers in osu's campus next to the stadium. 26 floors of hideous.

Any of the government buildings in downtown Baton Rouge that aren't the State Capitol.

They look like something a 4 year old created with brown and gray Legos.
