Houston doesn't have any architectural standouts? How about the Menil Collection? Transco Tower? The Rice campus?
Other than that, I actually agree: the Salt Lake building is a bit boring. I'm not suggesting we see it as a model for style. We have some excellent architects here in Houston who could come up with a distinctive and local design. But I do think it's a useful model in terms of scale and scope.
