Ah nevermind, I posted in another thread asking about this building before coming to this thread.  Wow!  I never knew this city existed.  Good find indeed!

Great Tower! I don't understand something though...in Israel, are Tel-Aviv and Ramat Gan considered to be two separate cities or just one, or two districts? Aren't they very close to eachother?

I give it a 9.5.  This is one of my favorite skyscrapers.  It looks awesome at night too.  I have some awesome night pics of this tower on my computer.  It'll post them later if I have time.

Seems high-tech. Looks high-tech.

The first pic brings out the best in this one.

It exudes....I can't fault it!

One of a kind...

Reminds me somewhat of 225 South Sixth (US Bank Place) in Minneapolis.

Only complaint about it, and this cant be helped at the moment, is that it looks like a redwood in an apple orchid. It's massively taller than anything nearby, but I'm sure that will be addressed in time.

That is neat tower but it seems out of place because everything else is smaller. Hopefully that will change soon. I definitely like the pictures and design of the building.

Very attractive building!  I would prefer a pic of citygate facing west toward the attractive Azraeli Towers in central Tel Aviv and the high rise hotels along the meditterrean shoreline. This would emphase how truly unique this building is with the   Tel Aviv-Ramat Gan skyline in the background.

When in Ramat gan, check out Ramat Aviv mall--cool place.

I was thinking much the same thing , although it's narrower, so I think it has more visual punch...  Very nice...

Very nice,Verynice indeed .Definitly a 10

[Skyliner]

Very tall.  Not bad at all.  I can't get the thought that it looks like either a huge revolver barrel or a gigantic smoke stack out of my mind.  A fancy top would have made it near perfect, so I'll give it an 8. B)

I give it a 10, amazing pictures!

It also reminds me of "Kronen Hochhaus" in Frankfurt, Germany

Yeah NCB, it looks a lot like the Kronen Hochhaus.
