Developers are not going to build some great ground-breaking designed mid-priced apartment towers. Developers are going to squeeze every inch of livable space in order to make a decent profit selling the building and the most efficient tower design for that is a box. Not round, oval, triangular, tapered, spired or any other design that doesn't maximize cheap livable space that could cause the project not to pencil out.

Fancier will come when we transition to high-end condo's or high-profile office space where perspective tenants WANT a nicer looking tower to live in or lease commercially. I'm fairly sure this is not far behind at the current build pace that Phoenix is going through (dare I say the beginnings of Manhattanization?).

I feel Astra is the one that could be the game-changer. I think Astra will usher in the next phase of pristine glass towers bordering 500+...whenever Empire decides to move on it.
