That reminds me of the Wachovia building in Winston-Salem, NC, in whose shadow I spent a summer at Governor's School. We all thought it needed to have a fountain at the top.
The rumor goes that it was the architect's last major work before retirement, and designed it that way as a joke - "Penis, hee hee!" - and they built it according to plan anyway. :) Dunno how much is true, but it made a great story to high school kids.
