I'm fine with that. It WAS a cargo terminal, after all. The hotel's boxy silhouette reminds me of something uber-modern from port cities like Rotterdam or Barcelona.

Unfortunately the cladding on the hotel has gotten more banal with every revision. Why not add some color or some variation to break up the monotony? I expected way more from Jackie Koo, but now it just looks like we're getting some crap that SCB or DeStefano threw together.
