The first actually looks like really good post modern architecture. That is to say that it looks like the really nice upscale part of an industrial park.

But, hard as it is to believe today, old City Hall, and buildings like it, were seen as unsalvageably hideous back when they were torn down. So maybe the glass, concrete, and clad in cheap shiny stuff boxes they've been building most of my life will actually look as good as City Hall to someone someday.

Ever since the "success" of the Palace Rossetti has been making big money designing arenas and stadiums [[like Ford Field) that look like over-grown warehouses on the outside and franchise-owner money fountains on the inside.
