> The building -- still known to many by its former name, the Freedom Tower -- has faced criticism in recent months, including a negative architecture review in the New York Times by Michael Kimmelman, who wrote that the skyscraper “looks as if it could be anywhere, which New York isn’t.” Comedian Chris Rock, in a Saturday Night Live opening monologue, called it the “never-going-in-there-tower, ’cause I’m never going in there.”
Both of those criticisms are so weak that I wonder how they made it into a Bloomberg article.
The second one isn't even a criticism really - it's a joke. Sure it could be a real critique (still not a great one) but it's more likely he thought, "this sounds funny" and said it because he's a comedian.
