Well, I stand corrected! Some of you folks did an excellent job, even with the
handicap of not having windows! My hats of to you guys!
By the way, although I don't have a ready picture of my 35 story Esso Tower, or
25 story One Shell Plaza, I did find a picture of part of my 18 story office

Art (an entry in Erik Wilson's Classic Architecture competiton about 4 years

The 18 story tower consists mostly of 1x3x2 and 1x4x2 red windows, with 8
classic red doors.
