my first choice in chicago would be trump tower.

Here is one to start since I happen to have a picture of it:

^That is also its most flattering angle BTW.
|
The Marriott Marquis. It may have some decent interior spaces but the exterior makes me hate life a little bit more every time I walk by.

With all of the POS beige-painted, concrete buildings between the river and North Ave, you pick Trump? I have no words... Taft |

OH GOD. I hate the Marriot Marquis in Times SQ. The Front and the rear are atrocious! The sides are ok but extremly dated. Be gone with it.

The RR Donnelly building on the Chicago river leaps to mind. It doesn't make me want to throw myself off a bridge or anything, but I think it's garrish...kind of like 'Vegas gone corporate". It's also a tall building that seems short....A dissapointing building in a prominent location.

^^^^^ That happens to be my favorite Chicago building. I'd get rid of the 'Unitran' building first.
|
Ah, and the "I dictate what good architecture is and everyone else is wrong" Master is back in business.:rolleyes:
|
The Trump is way better than the RR Donnelly and that is not saying much.
Nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey... goood bye to the RR Donnelly! |
oh God, in Portland it has to be the Michael Graves, Portland Building...the first postmodern office tower.
