Well the bad thing about that is that would becokenthe new norm, while the ads now would maybe become special. Like if everyone made videos the same way and it was amazing, it would eventually wear out and become non special, but it's nice to really have videos like this from this channel as well.

[@LudicrousTorpedo]

This skyscraper looks unique when it comes to exterior !

[@domenicf1317]

The most impressive thing is that it looks very different from each angle you look at the building. When you look at it from the harbour bridge (from the north) it looks broad, straight and relatively conventional, however when you look at it from Darling Harbour (to the south of the building) it looks much more slender, and the curvature of the building looks a lot more dramatic. And then looking at it from the west you again get a different impression of the building. Looks fantastic.

[@gorsair7458]

Its a pretty unique building, they wanted to make it higher to compete with the highest buildings in the world but restricted to Sydneys maximum height laws In place for aviation safety.

[@Diode5]

Having seen the building it does stick out like a sore thumb amongst Sydney's other buildings. If anything it should have been a little shorter. With that said over time hopefully the beige skyline of Sydney is replaced and this building won't appear so contrasting. The other new building in the area like Commbank look great. Sydney is finally getting some modern architecture.

[@markleon411]

This was fascinating. The tower is so tall that it is visible from a surprising number of locations. When you drive through urban areas, there it is sticking up above all else. The tower was originally meant to be out in the water on an artificial island but the government pulled back approval for that just before construction began.
