This is typical David Childs crap. How sad.
Go ahead, dump all over this post. I won't be reading any responses, though, so you're wasting your time.
Amazing how lemmings can be induced to fall over the cliff of conformity.

Yay for trolling! I think it's a gorgeous tower, plus the new technology being used to construct it and make it safer than any other building on the planet makes it even more symbolic.
Once the entire complex is built out, I don't think anyone will be able to deny the beauty.
