We must all remember the curse left by the dude back in the 60's or ther abouts. The curse could be manifesting itself in the spire. Everything looked so good, then that spire thing and one thing led to another... On the wings of butterflys turns the world. Okay. Didn't mean to freak anybody out. I don't believe in the curse and the spire will eventually work out OK.

Actually, the most offensive thing about the spire to me!? The spire is designed with 3 levels, right? The bottom two levels are centered with that section of the building... but the third is not! It's flush to the SE corner. ARGH THAT KILLS ME!!! I can't unsee it! Why did they not center it? There's no rational design reason I can think of to do that. Either make it all flush to the SE corner, or make it all center. It's like the teacher in school who erases a chalkboard diagram but leaves just a tiny bit ignored. Drives me absolutely bonkers!!
Rant over.
