I mean no offense, I love the highrises going up, but is it so hard for Phoenix to ask for some unique and iconic architecture?
A building you can look at in a magazine halfway across the country and say, "Oh, that's from downtown Phoenix!."

"Iconic Architecture" is always a tough thing to ask for. Buildings become iconic over time for any number of reasons.
That said, it would be nice to see something better connected to place, and an attempt at a crown or a roofline that generates some interest, especially with it being a counterpart to the Westward Ho, which is a genuinely iconic building. Curious how they will approach that relationship.
