I was there less than a month ago and although it was dark and rainy the entire 14 hours I spent on the ground, I wish I'd tried to go see it. I've read most of the talk about it not being the biggest for very long but still this is a weird time in history for Architecture.
Seemingly, Architecture is being valued again but more as a tourist attraction or as a gimic. Almost like a side show.London, Tokyo, Moscow could have "outbuilt" the Tradecenter/Empire State Building years ago. Its just a marketing ploy, almost like the worlds biggest ball of twine.
