Can't decide - Color or B&W ?

Hey all, I need your help!
I can't decide which one looks better, the color version or the black & white ?
Advice/ideas on other stuff regarding this pic are also welcome of course!

In my very humble opinion, I think both have merits. However for me, I feel the color one feels more like an architectural photo, where as the b&w one feels more abstract.

In my very humble opinion, I second what Scott said, "I think" he is correct ;)

Colour. Looking at the Mono I feel it loses drama without any deep blacks. The shot has nice composition and symmetry, I like it.

The B/W has to have more contrast, but then I would go with the B/W. B/W has a long tradition in architectural photography, mainly for its ability to reduce a building to its outer form, which is mostly what we want to achieve. True, it gets more abstractm but often this is what makes the image more interesting. Without the distraction of color, the building itself and its outer form are the main subjects in your image.
