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.

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

And why is it called "Symphony Tower"? Any information...?

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.

Does anyone know what will happen to the Henninger Turm in the future?

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

By the Way...

Two different companies were hired to build one tower each. So from the very beginning there was a competition which tower would be finished first. During construction of the skybridge several lightnings struck the building and blackouts were the consequence. Fortunately, everything turned out all right.

As far as I know it is supposed to look like a sail in the wind.

If you are lucky (The early bird catches the worm) and able to get a ticket, you can go up to the "Skybridge" which connects both towers.

This modern structure has a twist of old and new adding something lovely to the Atlanta skyline.
