  •  Support IMO this high rise building is a nice capture together with the climbing crane. For your information: the high of the building on the moment of the picture was taken was about 165 meters. After finishing the final high of this skyscraper should become 178 meters and will be the highest high-rise building of Switzerland. It should serve as head office of the pharma concern Hofmann-La Roche.-- Wladyslaw (talk) 20:39, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support A rather unusual subject for an FP - but I like it overall. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:28, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support I don't understand the silence about this picture. We have here an excellent subject, rare in FP. The light is better than good, the sharpness is perfect, there is no technical flaw like spots or so. The composition is very attractive and eye catching. Did you notice the little fisher-cabins with the nets ? I like this contrast between top modernity and old timers practices. We have many points of special value (construction, pharmaceutical industry, Switzerland etc...). Title, description and categorization are good (Clin. Last question: is it among one of our best here ? For me, yes, with no doubt. --Jebulon (talk) 10:42, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Jebulon: I think technical images or modern thinks have a rough ride compared to historical building. --Wladyslaw (talk) 18:11, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As for me, it is not only a technical image, nor a modern thing. It has something "more".--Jebulon (talk) 19:56, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
