Main Place looks better and is taller. The Museum tower is bland, but looks neat with the rest of the Dallas skyline.

No, they all aren't great. San Antonio and Fort Worth in particular have some ugly towers in their relatively small skylines.

I picked MainPlace, but I hate how the ground level looks so fortress-like and overimposing in the renderings.

Does anyone know when MainPlace will be completed? I was Downtown last weekend and didn't see it. Will it actually make an impact on the skyline or just be gobbled up by the other skyscrapers?
