I”m not sure the design is all it could be, but it’s still exciting to hear that Melbourne will soon host the southern hemisphere’s tallest building.
But the original 388m project designed by Eureka architects Fender Katsalidis, which was to have included a hotel, was scaled back by planners “due to CBD flight controls.” Because a lot of planes fly over the city at an altitude of 388m.
We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
Skyscrapers! A sign that the bubble economy is about to collapse. Better get ready!

Aye, I was thinking of Mark Thornton's Skyscraper Index as I write it.
