It surprises me that the CIS Insurance building and City Tower are available, but not the tallest building in the city!

I also imagine it would be pretty easy to whip up considering how rectangular it is (sorry if it isn't! I know nothing of B.A.T  :P)

Here are some reference pics

I'm trying to make this :)

I looked at this building when I first started BATing, but the glass scared me.  Then when I was looking for a new project to get me back into BATing after a while away. I saw your post and decided to try it out.  Like you say, it's just a few glass boxes so how hard can it be?...

...Well, quite hard as it turns out, but not too scary.  $%Grinno$%

My BAT thread is over at Simtropolis if you want to keep an eye on progress, but BATs take a long time to complete... especially in my case.  Sometimes, for a myriad of reasons, they even fail to come to fruition, so there are no guarantees that I'll finish it :(

Thanks so much! I see the building nearly every day and I always think how awesome it would look in Sim City.

I appreciate the effort! I seriously couldn't get my head around BAT, my first attempt was City Tower (seeing as I can see that from my window) but that failed miserably!
