I love tall buildings. I love buildings.
The concrete jungle is the only real thing we have to show of what man can do.
Too bad I won't live to see the day the entire earth is covered with mile+ high buildings.

This is an absolutely spectacular and stunning piece of engineering know-how... standing at 2625ft, it's a testament to the advancement of mankind... and is a middle finger to the rest of the world... nice way of saying... we're the shit...
