Without meaning to defend the building (it is a bit kitsch): I'm surprised to see the amount of hate for the architecture, while the same level of disdain isn't shared for the 99% percent of other buildings with contemporary architecture. Then when we lament how ugly our cities are, it's like the architectural equivalent of suburbanites vacationing in Europe and loving it, but deciding the urban planning principles used there could never work here.
So I give it credit for at least trying to be something.
