the hotlist, an architectural cool wall

[mightygoose]

me and from the ashes had a bright idea. it is basically the top gear cool wall fro buildings.

rules
all times refer to GMT as me and FTA are marshalling
1. each wednesday 6 buildings are nominated. this is first come first serve. only two may be buildings that are not either under contruction or completed.
2. people will then vote, commencing thursday, until tuesday for one of them to be put into the hotlist. it will also retain its percentage of the votes score to order the hotlist.
3. people may cast two votes. but obviously not on the same building. if they only wish to use one that is acceptable.
4. week 1 nominations have been divided equally between me and from the ashes....
5. people when casting votes should post the updated scores....
6. each weeks winner will be added to the list and the runner up auto added to the following weeks line up to make each weeks competitors 7.

my completed contenders

the hotel pennyslylvania
new york, located adjacent to madison square gardens


the ritz carlton hotel
wolfsburg autostadt, just opposite jestarr's VW powerplant bit

Schloss Arkaden]
Nord/LB]
Hotel Pennsylvania]
the Ritz Carlton]
