This is how it originally suppose to look! Look at the top of the towers it was 2 floors higher the FAA cut off the top! One tower would be outline in purple argon the other with green argon lighting! Tower 2 would have gold and sliver colored glass windows.

Yet somehow, I dont think we are losing any sleep over it.

If I had to guess he probably picked these two because they are the tallest in their respective cities.

Don't worry, you dont have to guess, he already said it was the tallest.

The more pics of JP Tower in Houston, the more I like it.

Its very elegant looking. I love the color, and its over 1000'.

The BofA in Dallas is very nice, but it looks likes its missing something on top. Also, that green light is ugly imHo.
