Not the look, I have nothing but respect for people who have the ability to design, as long as they don't ask for my tax $$$ to do it.

The security is scifi'ish. Five mile sound barriers. 3D body scans.....some really out there stuff

I was wondering about that too; if they can knock planes out of the air with sound waves, what will that do to cars on the ground and the boats in the harbor and...people's ears?

Actually I think it was a 5 mile no-fly zone and closer sound barriers. Generally, the physical security measures are ridiculous - but the protected central tower has some merit, though I think the designer would be shocked in a few years to learn there are people living and even running "undocumented jobs" (ie: prostitution and scavenging) there.

I actually gave them a yes vote. It's beautiful, gutsy and has vision.
