That makes sense, I could agree with that. Come to think of it there are no other buildings in Canada that really pop in my head when I think of the major cities. There are buildings in all of them that I like, but none that symbolize them really.
I think this diagram makes it pretty clear which is really the taller building in all the ways that count:
Yet the list of tallest buildings has the FCB after Atlanta.How does that happen?
Can you provide a list of the worlds tallest buildinhgs where the FCB is ranked talleer than the BOA in Atlanta?
Ill wait....
What are you talking about?I was comparing HIGHRISES..I just made statements about the boring design of many of Toronto's buildings.
Thats why all this was relevant.
Not that Atlanta BOA is more recognizeable than the Golden Gate.
Thank you fo letting us know that because I though the BOA in Atlanta was more recognizeable than the GG.
Van Der Rohe, Stone, I.M Pei, Rivell are rolling in their graves at your comment and Libeskind, Alsop, and Calavatra would give you the salute.
You guys are so comical.It "owns" it but no list anywhere is it ranked higher.
Wow just wow.You giys are so delusional its so comical.
No it does clearly own it - its a taller roof height and taller pinnacle height and is beefier... That other peach street building relies on a pathetic spire for its height just like Trump Toronto.
Do you think the CN Tower or Space needle are more well known?
probably a draw to me not sure
I would not put the CN tower in the same vein as the Eiffel tower or even ESB
though maybe miss read your post - if you are saying known but below those would agree
CN Tower is very known around the world and definietely more known that Space Needle. Maybe it's not as knowm as the Eiffel Tower or ESB, but stiil its up there for sure. It's kinda like Eiffel Tower/ESB are Alpha+ level in the iconic category, while CN Tower is like Alpha or at the worst, Alpha- in terms of known iconic/recognizable structures in the world.

I can show you IM PEI earliest buildings in North America right here in Atlanta and you would not even notice it.
Mercel Bruer designed Atlanta library is hated by everyone I know in Atlanta.
The list of famous architechs with some boring building in ncities worldwide is as long as the buildings that actually are celebrated.
