IMHO many new housing designs are hideously ugly.

The Ally Building, formerly known as Comerica Tower, formerly known as One Detroit Center was built by Gerald Hines, a Houston developer known to build attractive looking buildings with a lot of quality materials. One Detroit Center is mostly clad in granite... a much more expensive material than the usual glass buildings.

If you look at Philadelphia's Libery Place towers, they look like the Chrysler Building, but have only glass spires that gives off a cheap post modern look, while One Detroit Center has a very nice classic look that really complements the older skyscrapers of downtown Detroit.

Architects like to criticize and call One Detroit Center "pastiche" and complained when it was going up. But among post modern designs, it is one of the nicer ones.
