I like Fountain Place a whole lot better, it's one of my favorite skyscrapers.

I.M. Pei is also one of my favorite architects, I love his work!

Williams Tower is very nice..I dont see what it is to like about the Dallas Fountain. I think its okay but nothing to brag about.

I still think Williams is one of the classiest, handsomest, slickest Tower in Texas. It is what? about 30 years old? and still could fit in to more modern skylines.

Fountain Place...... I won't go there

I like Williams Tower way more, but clearly Fountain Place is more out of the ordinary.
