isn't it a shame that Philly seems to be compromised only of a long, rectangular lots--which creates the trend of this bland, broad, rectangular box?

City's with great skylines seem to have more square lots, where the building must gain its floor space from verticality and the shape of the plot lends itself to more elegant forms.

With the exception of the Comcast Center and 1701 Rittenhouse, are there other recent/future examples of square plot construction?
