Agreed, the flat wall on the west side is disappointing. The rest looks great so far.
^ I have to disagree. IMO, the slick clean lines of the west facade look just as impressive to me as the east elevation.
 
I was talking to someone who is working on this building, and apparently the main drive for the offset sections was to create large terraces. They have apparently come into large demand for companies - they want places their employees can relax at for lunch and whatnot, or go work with bit in fresh air in the summer months.
 
Angles we haven't had for a while (or ever) from (rather gray) yesterday:

I'm wishing it were — hmm, I dunno, not double the size exactly, but more something, not because I'm not enjoying it, but because its crazy reflections are so beguiling I want to be able to absolutely lose myself in it, so, hmm, I wish it were doubled in size with a mirror-image of itself?
