I just would like one very original tower/dildo-would-be-fine. That's it. Just one. To establish a clear break from tradition in the skyline.

That said, I want it to be good design, and I think the towers I cited above very much meet that standard while also breaking the mold.
Here we have a long, narrow, and rectilinear piece of property that has restrictions and demands.

This is about efficiency and profitability.
