== Criticism? ==

I realise criticism sections, like virtually everything else that made wikipedia interesting and useful back in the day, are now considered somewhat passé by Jimbo and friends, but the complete LACK of criticism in this article really needs to be addressed. Even in cities that are otherwise hideous, American state capitols are almost always beautiful examples of the sort of neo-classical early American architecture that never seemed to catch on elsewhere. But having an eye-meltingly hideous office tower instead is almost an affront to the people of North Dakota. Seriously, this building is so ugly it looks like it belongs in Boston's financial district.

Criticism?

I realise criticism sections, like virtually everything else that made wikipedia interesting and useful back in the day, are now considered somewhat passé by Jimbo and friends, but the complete LACK of criticism in this article really needs to be addressed. Even in cities that are otherwise hideous, American state capitols are almost always beautiful examples of the sort of neo-classical early American architecture that never seemed to catch on elsewhere. But having an eye-meltingly hideous office tower instead is almost an affront to the people of North Dakota. Seriously, this building is so ugly it looks like it belongs in Boston's financial district.

Welcome home, little bro.
