Huge apologies for messing with your pic sikandar.

There have been some comments re: CIBC being too wide/lousy massing and I speculated that the intended "conceit" of 2 conjoined towers might have worked a bit better if the centre inset portion used lighter or darker glazing.

Again sorry for messing with your pic.

This is what I to had said before, it really needs that (The dark stripe dividing them) to make it “Pop”. But is still beauty non the less
 
Compared to the rest of the city, it's like critiquing a Picasso.

Seriously, I had to read this before getting some "rest"? I often have an abstract (distracted) expression on my face, but imo this time... you got it wrong.

That would have greatly improved it - although that would have been two glass types to get right from the same supplier

...and nothing is completely above criticism. I think it's a good observation.
