I think it needs some pop and I am sure you probably can't do a lot about it, but the smaller building to camera right is distracting to me. I think the shot would be exciting without it. Great concept, however.

For my own knowledge, what does "add some pop" mean for this picture?

If you post process, use some levels/curves adjustments.

My 2 cents .... instead of pop - why not try to capture with the sun adding shadows and additional sharp lines.

interesting concept/shot and i like the second version better than the first. I would include more sky.
I'm wondering if you crop to more of the rule of thirds may help.

What does it look like in B&W? This would take away the blue and our eyes would pay more attention to the shapes of the building.
