For example, in his book The Pentagon of Power, Lewis Mumford denounced the center as an "example of the purposeless giantism and technological exhibitionism that are now eviscerating the living tissue of every great city".
Na primjer, u svojoj knjizi Pentagon snage, Lewis Mumford je osudio centar kao "primjer besciljnog gigantizma i tehnološkog egzibicionizma koji sada deru živo tkivo svakog velegrada".
