And while the Financial District is impressively dense, it's also just a flat-topped wall of 550-600 foot towers. No real focal point. Too much brown, not enough glass. Hopefully Millennium Tower will start to fix this by adding a bit of central peak and some much needed glass to the Financial District.

I agree with that and it does bother me. Luckily at ground level the city is amazing!
