Just stunning!

No, Bish. THIS

is stunning. The other is a building.

So...I like architecture
You are talking with a fisherman and canoe camper...there is little that can compare to a star-filled sky, a misty morning in a forest with the sun spearing in, or a nice sunset.

I can appreciate man-made marvels though...and that building (especially in comparison to the classic skyscraper HUGE rectangle) is beautiful.

 

[SouthernN'Proud]

Nothing man made will ever rival what was made for him. All we can do is screw it up.

The buildings are pretty damn stunning too.

Those hotel rooms are sweet, indoor ski resort, and that rotating skyscraper is going to be something else.

I just have a hard time believing that the rotating skyscraper is only going to cost $500 million. They must use slave labor to build or something... a new football stadium costs around $500 million and a self-sufficient rotating skyscraper seems like much more of an engineering challenge.

All they did was ruin a beautiful bay by sticking a concrete monstrosity in the middle of it.
