I actually like the tower portion (8/10). The crown, if they get rid of those white squares, is Ok and I would give a 6/10 simply for the shape. The podium is just trash....1/10.
It's unfortunate that the podium is the only part that is an absolute requirement for making a nice, livable urban place. Crowns can be neat but are optional, height can be great, but is optional. The one thing you absolutely need gets the 1/10.
 
Some decent lighting would help a lot.

Reminds me of a story where Steve Jobs hated a mock-up of an apple store until they turned on the lights.

It would be nice if the analogy paired, but an Apple Store is all glass. WVT has none.

If a light is turned on in WVT is it even lit?
