I think I already commented here, but hell, I'll do it again.

Dallas skyline = better at night
Houston skyline = better OVERALL.

I really hate the BOA Dallas. I really like the look of the Margaret Hunt though.

I kind of like the cartoon-ish outline of the BOA at night. I miss the Wedge green outline building in Houston. I wonder why they stopped lighting it?

Wikipedia says the lighting of the Wedge tower inspired the lighting of the BOA building in Dallas? thats interesting.. i wonder if the lighting on Wedge was damaged during one of the storms?

I think Wikipedia has it backwards. It should have been the other way around. I'm not sure what happened with the lighting. But its almost heartbreaking looking at that POH shot and knowing Houston's skyline will probably never look like that again at night.

Thats a lie...the original design was based on having two towers. The unbuilt was to have purple lighting with gold tinted windows. They were to be a color schemed glowing Couple. That building in houston had absolutely nothing to do with the green tubing on BofA tower. Anybody can add info to wiki. Thats not a creditable source.
