This kind of made me laugh, beause I remarked on this in this thread. While they cut the cost by doing it curtain wall instead of directly applying it, one of the tallest buildings in the country will, indeed, be faced with expensive terra cotta panels. They also get the price down by the building being so thing, but that's still a crap-load of terra cotta panels.
Of course it's on an luxury residential tower. But, yeah, it is still being done.
