There are increasing number of reports and articles popping up that have been pointing out that when large multinational banks, such as JP Morgan Chase, are asked just what has been done with the government bailout funds, they are unable or unwilling to disclose just what they have done with the money. Banks that have received federal bailout funds apparently think that the rules don't apply to them, unlike people who get emergency cash through a payday loan, who have to pay it back, and be accountable. When a normal person gets emergency cash, they have to be accountable, and pay it back – evidently the rules just don't apply on Wall Street. Maybe in the future the government should look to payday loan companies as a guideline for how to hand out emergency cash.

A lot like a painting

You're right. It does kind of look like it's a painting, more than just a photograph.

By far the highest building in this area.

Symphony?!

Camouflage

The first picture looks great. It might become fashinable to "camouflage" buildings ...

Tetris

Despite the fact that the building symbolizes a portcullis, I think it looks like yet another Tetris-building. The two parts perfectly fit into one another.

The smaller grey part with a

The smaller grey part with a fassade made of triangles is also part of it.

The skybridge concept

The skybridge concept reminds me of the Petronas Twin Towers (http://www.ourbania.de/urban-items/petronas-towers).

I think it is one of the nicest buildings in Frankfurt. You can really see that it is a "green bubilding" because of the many "sky gardens". Get on top of the Main Tower (http://www.ourbania.de/urban-items/main-tower) and you will have a nice view on it.

It looks very futuristic and

It looks very futuristic and also very confusing. I wonder if the employees lose their way from time to time ...

The Hearst Magazine Building has a unconventional design, but i don't like it. It looks strange to me..
