I thought the construction sounded familiar.

"The Sears Tower was designed by the architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the same firm that designed the John Hancock Center."

I like their buildings.

I don't care for the WTC replacement architecture. Lame, big-time, IMHO.

I confess I've fantasied taking down the Petronas Towers. I like the towers. But my 911 dislike of muslims and general revenge principles, spur on visions of spectacular explosions. Although I like the architecture, they remind me of something.

Just saw the Sears tower on Nat Geo.

Very wise redundancies in it from alternate electricity generation to double air conditioning needed.
