Yup, glad that Trump tower is not ugly like the one in Toronto.

Just googled it and ya the Toronto one is .. meh.. somehow the cap thing doesn't look right. At least its not another giant dull rectangle and at least it has a 'top'. A Hat.

This reminds me of Vancouvers David Burner who so often complained about one of Vancouver's most ugly attributes - they don't have 'hats' on buildings. Tops. So basically it just looks like they were constructed to whatever height and stopped. Often three is pipes, water, service, whatever just sticking out up top. It looks like Vancouver just has many many unfinished high-rises or skyscrapers. Put some kind of top on your buildings!

But not thrilled with the Toronto topper. It's like it could seem cool 'on paper' or something but ends up not quite right/weird ugly somehow

Yeah, it look like they had an idea, but then they had meetings with a committee and there was 25 compromises. I like daring towers.
