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?

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.
