Extremely poor twin copy of the Chrysler Building. Not attractive in the least for me 4.5/10

Terrible, absolutely terrible. A blatant Chrysler ripoff with a facade that belongs in a suburban office park. This is an insult to skyscrapers.

Sorry but no. In principle I have no problem with the Chrysler inspiration, but the whole skeletal crown thing is really looking terrible. Facade is ugly too. It retains the overall Chrysler silhouette seen from a distance, which is good, but again it's kind of ruined by the fact it's only a frame.
4/10.

I like Dubai and i love their projects.
But when any city does this its an insult!!!!
and i can't believe how this project got approved in first place.
I mean its not Dubailand!! that's undrestandebal (in a good way) and i like that project.
1/10 for the height plus being twins.

I understand, but I can see similarly to the predecessor that however references to the building of the Chrysler are strong. So there is my impression.

3 or less, its just a copy of the Chrystler building. BOOOO TO COPYING!!!

I honestly can't believe that this was actually built! The obvious mimicking of the Chrysler is painful.
Usually most copies tend to be more subtle to gain acceptance.

Well it's clearly Chrysler look-alike but not exactly the same... if you ask me the building could have been designed in much better way than this so it gets 7/10 from me.

Poor imitation of a NYC 30s style (Chrystler). 5/10 for trying.
