If you're ever in the Bay Area, go across the bridge to Sausalito and look back at the city at sunset. The Salesforce Tower looks like a chrome cylinder jammed into some mashed potatoes. It's incredible how much newer and shinier it looks; totally out of place.

It'll probably dim with age, but right now it really doesn't fit with the rest of the buildings due to sheer newness.

There has been a lot of construction of the same style going on in the last few years. Here are 14 new buildings coming up - https://sf.curbed.com/maps/san-francisco-high-rise-map-2018 - all of them with the new glass look. The skyline is going to change fast.
