with reflection of the Crown Building
As bronze-colored glass towers go, it is very fine because 
of its detailing and, more importantly, its thin, stepped massing.
The 644-foot-high tower is made to appear even thinner by its 
sawtooth plan, which also creates more corner windows that are 
more salable. (The project's apartment layouts had to be modified 
during construction when it was discovered that too many corner 
bedrooms "looked" into other apartment bedrooms.)
The unusual layout also proved that flat-roof buildings are not 
necessarily ugly even in a Post-Modern age. From many pedestrian 
vantage points, the tower's top is rather zigzag. Indeed, this is 
quite a complex design, both inside and out.
