Heheh, an arugment which goes out the window when Tokyo puts the Hudson River architecture Mansion in Fantasyland, where the design makes zero sense.
Also, and more appropriate to this discussion, both American Towers of Terror feature 1920's California architecture. One's simply more boring, less creepy. Both are accurate, but one is more interesting and more appropriately frightening. The exterior of the original looks to have cost a few palty hundred thousand dollars more than the DCA sequel.
Perhaps it's not really the "fault" of the imagineers, but rather the curse of DCA that has resulted in the most boring-looking Tower of Terror being chosen for California. If so, it's hardly surprising that the only Disney park worse than DCA, the Walt Disney Studio Park in France, would select the boring model as their ToT.
