Nighttime view in a large city after a day of heavy rain, facing upward toward a group of high-rise residential buildings; in the gap between the buildings, a tall skyscraper building rises up amid the low-hanging clouds; the skyscraper, with its uniquely angled top and matte-silver exterior, is an official landmark of the city and was built on top of a church; the engineering of the building is very unique and caused a lowkey crisis when it was built in 1977; the skyscraper is supported with columns at its core, not its corners, and numerous emergency repairs had to be made to prevent the risk of collapse under high winds; the lights from the tower illuminate the clouds directly above it; in the foreground, several of the condos have their lights on, although many people probably haven't arrived home just yet.
