And I totally agree with this exerpt from the article:
And even though HOK is still capable of terrific designs -- PNC Park in Pittsburgh and SBC Park in San Francisco are considered gems -- its buildings do not make dramatic statements the way Frank Gehry's do. The curving glass, titanium and limestone of the Guggenheim in Bilbao turned a derelict port city into a tourist destination... "Kansas City deserves a Frank Gehry," Proebstle says.
