It’s official, the results are in: the Broken Sidewalk readership hands down prefers New York’s Chrysler Building to our home grown Aegon Center. Over the past week, you voted three-to-one in favor of the Chrysler Building in our first Battle of the Buildings poll.
We admit, there really wasn’t much of a chance for the Aegon Center standing up against such an international landmark, but hey, the writing was on the horse. So what decided it for you? Is the watered-down postmodern art-deco not enough for you? Do you prefer the spire to the dome? The Aegon Center may be one of the best buildings built recently in Louisville, but what could be better? Or what is already great? It’s time for the exit polls.
Official Results:
- Chrysler Building, 15 votes (75 percent)
- Aegon Center, 5 votes (25 percent)
- Is The Aegon Center Louisville’s Chrysler Building? (Broken Sidewalk)
