Of course, I'm partial to Duke Energy Center going up here in Charlotte:




Is it just me or is it some days the Duke Energy tower seems to be a Carolina blue with white trimming but other days its a grayish black with silver trimming? Its so reflective I think it has to do with some days being cloudy and it being really bright the next!

Oh okay because I remember when I went to see family when we first drove through it was really blue and white trimming but the next week when we left and we were drivin through it was raining a little bit and it seemed grayish silver with a silver trimming.

Either way I like both ways it looks cool how many buildings can you say changes colors naturally lol. Hey Im just wondering I thought I remember seeing somethin on a video about the Duke Energy Tower having lights on the sides of it. Does anyone know anything about this?
