[CHAPINM1]

I figured I'd put this together since there are several projects out there either proposed or in the works by the Trump organization that are not as mentioned that can get some attention, here is a great place to shed some light on them as well as monitor current progress. :D

My top 3 Trump Developments include Trump Chicago, Trump Toronto, and Trump Las Vegas. My favorite is the Trump Tower Chicago by far!

There are not seperate threads for such projects as Trump Las Vegas, Trump Toronto, Trump New Orleans, or even Trump Tampa. I am really exited to see what the unvailing of Trump Atlanta is gonna be! Anyway, this is not all projects, but here is a list of the key projects currently in the works, I know there are a lot in throughout NYC and New Jersey, but here's a list of the most prominent and largest projects in development.

Trump Atlanta - No details as of yet. (Announced)


I'm still developing the thread so I apologize if I have any missing information or photos.

[spyguy]

Well I know there are a lot of other new "Trump's" in NY/NJ region, as well as more abroad like in Dubai.

And Hawaii

[CHAPINM1]

My favorite by far is the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago by far and I am very glad it gets the attention it is, there are other projects such as Trump Las Vegas, Trump Tampa, and Trump New Orleans that I am very suprised are not getting the attention that they should.

Also, for those who didn't know, Trump Tower Las Vegas has already began working on the gold facade!

There's a nice one in panama city aswell

I wonder if The Donald will be reading this? :D

I hope the Atlanta one comes close to Trumping them all. I also hope it looks nothing like that New Jersey one :haha:

[supastar]

Trump Chicago is my favorite (until the Atlanta one is announced, at least). Dubai is fantastic, Vegas is hideous, of course and why is Philly's so bland? I would expect something more spectacular for Philadelphia. Also, why is it taking so long for Toronto's to start construction? Chicago will be finished before it even starts at this rate.

[houstonx]

I wonder where Trump will put one up in Texas..

Austin (Most Likely)
Houston (Somewhat)
Dallas (A chance)

Trump has already proposed a tower for Dallas. He said that he was looking for land, but didnt want to speculate.


Trump eyeing sites for Dallas tower
Dallas Business Journal - February 20, 2006by Christine PerezStaff Writer
Print this Article Email this Article Reprints RSS Feeds Most Viewed Most Emailed
Real estate mogul Donald Trump says he's considering several locations for his Trump Tower Dallas, one of them in partnership with another investor.

"I have three sites I'm looking at, two in particular," Trump told the Dallas Business Journal. "And I may invest in two and not do them for a while. I wouldn't do them all at the same time, because then I'd be competing against myself."



Two of the sites would accommodate multiple uses, including residential and retail; the third would be purely residential. One of the locations would require Trump to partner with another investor.

"I'm doing two of the deals very distinctly and very directly without anybody," Trump said.

The real estate investor denied rumors that a deal with developer Hillwood at its Victory Park project is imminent.

Trump Towers are sprouting in several cities across the country. In Chicago, construction is under way on a 92-story skyscraper along the Chicago River, where $750 million in residences have already been sold. Trump's 1,283-unit Trump Tower Las Vegas is sold out. He's also pursuing projects in Miami, Tampa, Denver and Philadelphia.

Why the flurry of new developments? "The name is blazing hot," Trump said. "The television show (NBC's "The Apprentice") is a monster -- though I think I was hot before the television show, in all fairness.

"Wherever we do a Trump Tower, whatever market we're in, we sell faster and we sell for higher prices. The key is, we only want the best sites."

Trump flew to Dallas from Palm Beach, Fla., on his private jet Feb. 19 to speak at Real Estate Wealth Expo, a two-day symposium at the Dallas Convention Center. He toured the local development sites before hitting the stage, then flew to New York City after the event.

Bill Zanker, founder of The Learning Annex, which hosts the Real Estate Wealth Expo tour, said he was hoping for 15,000 attendees in Dallas -- and got 18,000.

Trump, who was paid a cool $1.5 million for his appearance at the wealth expo, said the time is right to invest in Dallas.

"I like Dallas as a market," he said. "It's not a great market right now, but that's a good time to buy."

There's a 50-50 chance that Trump Tower Dallas will come to fruition, Trump said.

"I would never say more than a 50-50 chance about any deal," he said. "I've done deals where everything is done and the papers are ready to be signed and I walk into the office and an hour later, for some reason, the deal doesn't get done. So I never say any deal has more than a 50-50 chance until it has a 100% chance -- meaning, it's signed."

[CHAPINM1]

HA! Good idea for a thread.

I wonder if The Donald will be reading this? :D

Thanks! ;)

[CHAPINM1]

I hope the Atlanta one comes close to Trumping them all. I also hope it looks nothing like that New Jersey one :haha:

I agree, I bet Atlanta will top a lot of them, I heard that he said it will be the tallest building in Atlanta when completed. Also, I really think the Jersey City project is ugly as well and I'd bet good money that says the project in Atlanta will look nothing like that. Trump Denver and Trump Jersey City are 2 projects that need serious revisions! Well, with the Denver project if the 2 ugly spires were taken off that would help dramatically!!!

[NYonward]

An article from today's WSJ about a Trump development:

Wall Street Journal
6/14/06

Resisting Condos, Not Charm

Hendersonville, N.C. -- SOME RESIDENTS of this town of 12,000 at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains so cherish its small-town Southern image that they affectionately call it Hooterville, after the fictional hamlets in the vintage television sitcoms "Petticoat Junction" and "Green Acres." Many of those same residents are spitting mad about a proposed condominium development.

And that was before they knew that The Donald is involved.

Hendersonville is more than a rural crossroads depicted in those TV shows. Its Main Street, on the National Register of Historic Places since 1988, anchors a 12-block historic district now dotted with cafes and art galleries. To enliven downtown, the town has carefully cultivated an image of Monday night square dances and neighbors relaxing outdoors in rocking chairs. The North Carolina Apple Festival -- a celebration of Henderson County's cash crop complete with apple pie contests -- has been running for 60 years straight.

The image has helped attract retirees and tourists along with the area's mild climate and relatively low cost of living. But what was first a trickle of newcomers has turned into a rush and city life is beginning to encroach: Traffic, sprawl and now the arrival of the ultimate city slicker: Donald Trump.

Two large residential projects partly financed by the New York developer's mortgage company, particularly a luxury condominium that could cast a shadow over the turn-of-the-century courthouse, has split the community.

So far the project can't go forward because city officials say it violates a height ordinance designed to protect the town's small-town feel. The ordinance stipulates downtown residential buildings can be no higher than the base of the courthouse dome. The developer, Ed Hernando, a transplant from Miami to nearby south Asheville, has lowered the height from nine stories to seven, but is still proposing a building that would cover an entire city block, with five floors of living space and two for parking.

E.J. Ridings, president of New York-based Trump Mortgage LLC, is perplexed by the opposition. "I know it's Hendersonville, North Carolina, and it's up in the beautiful mountains, and all," says Mr. Ridings. "But I keep saying to Ed, 'There are houses that are taller than five stories on Long Island.' Please."

That's exactly what some residents fear Hendersonville will turn into -- Long Island. Or Atlanta or Miami, or anyplace they believe is too crowded or too tall.

If taller buildings are allowed, "we will eventually transmogrify this wonderful vibrant beloved town into a squalid, bloated, obscene representation of everything that is wrong about modern America," warned local newspaper columnist Stephen M. Black.

Other historic cities nestled in natural settings have struggled with similar issues, including Ketchum, Idaho, and Bozeman, Mont., says Kingston Heath, director of the graduate program in historic preservation at the University of Oregon. The central conflict, he says, is how to preserve the charm that makes people want to live in an idyllic town without turning it into a museum where nothing can change.

In some ways, Hendersonville is a victim of its own success. After a nearby mall opened in 1982, Main Street businesses nearly died. Locals resurrected downtown by encouraging cafes, bookstores, boutiques and wine bars to open. Tourists who visited during peak fall foliage began arriving in all seasons.

That's one reason why Trump Mortgage backed the project. "It's one of the most well known and wealthiest areas of North Carolina," Mr. Ridings says. "We know that it's vibrant. It's not the backwoods of nowhere."

After the First Federal Savings Bank erected an 80-foot-tall branch on Main Street in 1987, the city enacted a height ordinance of 64 feet, or 2,208 feet in elevation. That threshold went unchallenged until last year, when Mr. Hernando proposed what is now known as the Carolina Grand, half a block off Main Street. His original plan called for a building with nine floors, the top two for penthouses that opened onto a roof garden. Some units were priced up to $1 million -- in an area where the average condo sells for about $188,000. The building would have been 115 feet -- almost double the maximum allowed. (Mr. Hernando's other project, a condo-hotel to be called the Wisteria Hotel, meets the height ordinance.)

Though several mixed-use projects have gone up in the past few years, allowing a few pioneers to live downtown, the Carolina Grand's application was a leap in scale that caught longtime residents off guard. Opponents mobilized, even after Mr. Hernando eliminated two floors and the roof garden. Residents packed public meetings and wrote letters to the local newspaper.

"This is a small town, but it's not a little hick southern town," says Steve Caraker, chairman of Hendersonville Historic Preservation Commission. "Our base of population is retirees, most of them college educated and financially successful. They are not dummies and they are not going to get steamrolled."

Bobby Wilkins, a resident for 48 years and principal of Hendersonville High School, says he believes the Hooterville nickname came about because some residents resembled the homespun characters on "Petticoat Junction" and "Green Acres" back when those shows aired in the 1960s and 1970s. "I thought it was a slap, until someone explained that our town was laidback in those days," Mr. Wilkins says. Now Hooterville is used routinely in a self-deprecating manner. A sandwich shop sells a Hooterville Hunk submarine with roast beef, provolone, cole slaw and thousand island dressing.

Not everyone is itching to kill the Carolina Grand. Many Main Street merchants say they would welcome wealthy residents living near their stores. "They need to build it as high as possible," says Todd Allen, a gemologist at Scotties Jewelry & Fine Art.

In February, the city council turned down Mr. Hernando's revised application for a variance, even after the project's height was lowered to 79 feet. Mr. Hernando and the current property owner are suing the council.

Mr. Hernando says he was stunned by the defeat. He thought city leaders would leap at the chance to bring in high-end residential units, expanding the tax base and attracting more year-round shoppers. "I'm the exact opposite of what people are accusing me of -- being the big-city guy who doesn't care about the town," says Mr. Hernando. "I thought I was actually helping the town."

Barbara Volk, a council member and mayor pro tem, insists that the issue is Carolina Grand's height, not its design or developer. The modern look is not her style, she says, but "if it had not been for the height I would have had no reason to reject it."

The fight isn't over. City council member Bill O'Cain, who recused himself on the earlier vote because he was an assisting architect on the project, says he supports a proposal allowing residential buildings in the historic district to rise to 80 feet -- except for properties facing Main Street. That change would make the lawsuit moot and pave the way for the Carolina Grand.

The city's planning board voted Monday not to change the ordinance until a committee studies it. The issue now moves to the city council, which could ignore the planning board's recommendation and change the ordinance.

That Trump Mortgage is involved only furthers the suspicions of some residents that city officials will cave in. "It's really kind of funny," says Erica Allison, the planning board's chairwoman. "A lot of planning board members feel that whatever recommendation we come up with, they [the city council] are just going to do whatever they want to."

Says James Hall, a developer who has done mixed-use projects on Main Street and opposes changing the ordinance: "It almost sounds like they are bringing in a big name to put down the insurrection."

I wonder where Trump will put one up in Texas..

Austin (Most Likely)
Houston (Somewhat)

I honostly was thinking the same, if he were to do a project in Texas I have always speculated that he'd do something in Houston if he were to do anything in Texas. I wonder if he'll ever do anything here in Minneapolis/St. Paul as well... One thing about both Houston and Minneapolis is that they haven't seen any new major additions to their skylines in at least 15 years.

didnt you see the article i posted. he is suppose to do something in dallas.

i also heard on another forum that the trump tower in atlanta was not going to be a signature, but another developer would build it and pay trump to brand it. it would also be at around 55 stories.

[CHAPINM1]

[QUOTE=LouisianaCharm]didnt you see the article i posted. he is suppose to do something in dallas.QUOTE]

Yup I read it. I just would have figured that Trump would have done a development in Houston before anywhere else in Texas since it's the largest city in Texas as well as the 4th largest in the US. However Dallas is developing a lot faster and has a lot more going for it. It's CBD has a lot more upcomming projects in the works including The Mandrian Oriental Tower.

[CHAPINM1]

It was major dissapointment and letdown that this one was never built... :( I'm still pretty pissed off that the developers had cold feet and backed out of it.

Really?! I hope Atlanta gets a goodlooking Trump tower as most of his towers sucks in design imo. I have heard someone mentioned that Trump ATL would be around the 800ft range...not the tallest. But I won't be surprized if he is to announce Atlanta's tallest skyscraper. And to be honest Atlanta is long due for a second 1,000+ foot skyscraper.

4th largest "city" in america means absolutely nothing. The problem with Houston is...the home values in Houston are among the nations lowest. Atlanta is got 450k in the city...but runs neck and neck with metro houston population. Trump builds in small cities too...like tampa...new orleans. If any city, im thinking dallas.

A lot of "Trump" buildings are not really being developed by Trump but rather branded and marketed by him.

Yeah, I would have LOVE to see that one get built as well!

His ex wanted it. It was to be named after her. Maybe somewhere down the road, it might resurface, hopefully.:shrug:

[houstonx]

I can give many reasons to build one in Downtown Houston… For one there is not enough residential downtown and there will be a spark that will educe this change very soon..

The area around the New Lamar Park Downtown(U/C) in-between George R Brown Convention Center/Toyota Arena/Minute Maid Park is Prime Property now. Also with the Houston Pavilions(U/C)(Huge Shopping Entertainment District) down the road this area screams for some high-rise condo project (Park Tower - Proposed). There is already a 36 story tower going up at the end of the park.. I would figure Trump might think about this area’s possibilities =X

^^^i agree.............

[Scruffy]

The size of the city means nothing. its all about whether or not the city can sustain Luxury condos. Such as in the northern suburbs of NYC. These are all Trump brandings but they are trump towers nonetheless. In White Plains NY (20 min north of the city) he recently finished a 35 story tower called Trump Tower at City center. In New Rochelle, NY (5 minutes north of the Bronx) he is mid construction of this tower. Trump Tower at New Roc

this is the only render i could find
http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c81/Scruffy88/3596a2a0.jpg

All three of which are to be the tallest buildings in their cities. Something that if feasible, he loves to do. So for Atlanta, Im sure he would love to build taller than BOA if he would be allowed to and if the economics is right for it

[Scruffy]

I know this is a development thread but It would also be cool to see some completed Trump projects from around the world

[Reverie]

Yeah, I would have LOVE to see that one get built as well!

That was the Ivana Trump Tower in Las Vegas at 923 feet. I was majorly pissed when this one bit the dust after they even put up a sales office.

Interestingly enough the site is still zoned for a building with that hieght so... The current Trump tower is Las Vegas is a mere 623 feet. It was the tallest building when it was approved but now several other buildings being built are taller (not that much taller, only by 50 ft or so). Donald Trump could take the top spot by far once again if he takes over the Ivana tower site. For once I'm counting on trump's desire to have the tallest buildings in a city to push this through. Seeing such awesome and much better looking Trump towers in Toronto and Chicago makes the Vegas Tower look pale in comparison.

[CHAPINM1]

The one thing I really think is cool about Trump Las Vegas is the gold windows. However if it were up to me to choose between his project, or Ivana's project, I would have had no problem at all sacraficing both the Trump Towers for that magnificent project Ivana had planned...

Agreed! The 860'/72 floor Trump World Tower was the first actuall skyscraper in NYC to be built since the 1970's to be put itself on NYC's top 10 tallest!!! That's a long time! This would be my favorite Trump project completed as of now, but once Trump Tower Chicago is done, then it will have to settle for 2nd place. Anyway, great tower!

Trump's project in Toronto at the end of 2005 was around 60% sold. However, hes competing against the Rtiz Carlton (Over 60% sold in a few months and proably much more now), as well as the upcoming Four Seasons, and Shangri-la Hotel. That and hes doesn't seem to be too popular here as Ritz is doing far better than Trump's project.

Trump Toronto has been approved for a long time, but I haven't heard anything in a long time.

Does anyone know whats going on with Trump in Phoenix? They still have their website up http://trumpintlphoenix.com/ even though the project was cxl a while back.

Thanks for any info back!!!

:yuck: Trump World Tower is horrible I'll never forgive Trump for putting up such garbage. Its a tall rectangular black box with no aesthetic quality whatsoever.

This guy has not built a good tower in NYC since the Trump Palace Condominiums which is the only building of his that I like. I cringe every time I hear that he is going to come out with a new tower in NYC. Hopefully the NIMBY's can kill his latest garbage in SOHO.

I just looked up that info and according to www.wikipedia.com, the Phoenix project was canceled December 21, 2005.

I guess that's what I like about it, it's nothing weird or out of the ordinary. It's a black rectangular black box skyscraper that doesn't have weird colors or a really messed up design, it's a very tried and true design like the John Hancock Center or the Sears Tower both in Chicago. Even though this is not Trump, this to me is what I love so much about Trump World Tower, it's a black box design. It isn't a black box design as well as any design that got out of control and ended up something like this which I hope NEVER gets built!

I guess he just wants to leave it up in the air and see what will happen, like 5 years down the road when Phoenix starts growing up as well as out like Vegas, he'll be back.

Trump tower Toronto will look incredible where its gonna be! Any timeframe, details on that?

[Scruffy]

I love trump world tower. its a big black monolith that is at once oppressive but has this smooth, shiny look to it. I love its tremendous height also. I love that its a simple shaft, no setbacks, no decorations, simple luxury living. If only i could afford to live in that tower. preferably at the top

Agreed! :D

imho,TWT is probably the best black box tower I've ever seen...it's got that sleek glass skin and great proportions.

I usually don't care for boxes, but they can be done right.

[spyguy]

Trump World Tower is easily one of the best I've seen from Trump and I love its sleekness. It's a great tower all around

[M'sFan]

It's time for the Trumpster to come to Seattle! With our nice condo/upscale hotel boom, it seems the time is right!!! Are you reading Donald?

Don't hold your breath.

Yeah, it'd be cool (and there's plenty o rich folks around Seattle), but Trump's brand image is way too brash and ostentatious for this town.

[austin356]

Really?! I hope Atlanta gets a goodlooking Trump tower as most of his towers sucks in design imo. I have heard someone mentioned that Trump ATL would be around the 800ft range...not the tallest. But I won't be surprized if he is to announce Atlanta's tallest skyscraper. And to be honest Atlanta is long due for a second 1,000+ foot skyscraper.


yes.....

Also, the Atlanta Journal Constitution and Atlanta Business Journal have reported that Trump is building 2 projects in Atlanta; One in Midtown and one in Buckhead. Of coarse with all likelyhood only one, if any, will actually make it into the sky.

[CHAPINM1]

It's already pushing the end of June and no information about the Atlanta project have been released yet... If anyone from Atlanta is reading this please let us know if you hear anything. ;)

Trump to tower Tel Aviv skyline (http://www.fin24.co.za/articles/default/display_article.asp?Nav=ns&ArticleID=1518-1783_1957676)
June 25, 2006 18:32 PM

Jerusalem - Real estate tycoon Donald Trump said on Sunday he will build a "Trump Tower" in Tel Aviv, his first investment in Israel in what would be the largest building in the country.
Trump, along with US-based Crescent Heights Investments, will build the 70-storey tower of luxury apartments on the site of the current headquarters of food company Strauss-Elite, across from the Diamond Exchange, at a cost of about $300m, they said in a statement.

"We are developing a signature landmark property so impressive that it will set a new standard for luxury condominium living in Israel," Trump said.

"I am confident that Israel's future can only go one direction and that is up," he said, adding he had been negotiating to buy the site for a year.

"Trump Tower Israel will redefine the city's spectacular skyline and bring the level of sophistication and design that Israel deserves."

[CHAPINM1]

That sounds like a pretty impressive project! Definitally something of high magnitude for Trump, the only other buildings I can think of as of now that he built that are taller or are in the process of constucting are Trump Tower Chicago and Trump World Tower. This will also really be something to add to Jerusalem!

[TALLTOWER]

I guess that's what I like about it, it's nothing weird or out of the ordinary. It's a black rectangular black box skyscraper that doesn't have weird colors or a really messed up design, it's a very tried and true design like the John Hancock Center or the Sears Tower both in Chicago. Even though this is not Trump, this to me is what I love so much about Trump World Tower, it's a black box design. It isn't a black box design as well as any design that got out of control and ended up something like this which I hope NEVER gets built!

No offense but this is the most ugliest building I have ever seen.

[aesop]

Someone talking trash about TWT? One of my all time favorites. TWT is awesome!

[CHAPINM1]

I agree, I was pointing out that the Louisville project was the ugliest thing that could ever happen to the "Black box" design. Also, TWT is my 2nd favorite Trump project right after Trump Tower Chicago that is being built. Trump World Tower is the perfect black box design and looks just as great as the John Hancock Tower and Sears Tower in Chicago.

Trump plans Midtown towers
'I'm coming to town,' celeb developer says

By WALTER WOODS
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Published on: 08/04/06

The Donald is coming to Atlanta.

Celebrity New York developer Donald Trump is teaming up with Wood Partners and Dezer Properties to develop two high-rise condo towers in Midtown Atlanta.

The two towers - one 30 stories and the other 40 stories - are the first for Trump in Atlanta. The plans were announced Friday after months of speculation.

"I'm coming to town and we're going to build one of the great developments in Atlanta," Trump said in a telephone interview.

The project will be called Trump Towers Atlanta and will be located on 2.5 acres the intersection of 15th and West Peachtree streets in Midtown, across the street from the Arts Center MARTA station near the Woodruff Arts Center.

Construction is expected to begin early next year with the first phase to be completed by early 2009.

Trump said the $300 million project will be an architectural landmark that will reflect the quality of the Trump brand.

"It's a great location in a great city. I've loved Atlanta for years," Trump said. Atlanta "hasn't been recognized for its architecture the way Chicago and New York has. We're going to change that."

Trump Towers Atlanta will be expensive, though Trump and his team have yet to set a price point. The towers will feature units with 10-foot ceilings, boutique retailers and restaurants.

Trump will form a joint venture with Marietta-based condo developer Wood Partners. Wood bought the site in March for $21 million.

Wood Partners has built several local residential projects, often partnering with Atlanta-based developer Novare Group. Wood also took the condo tower concept to the metro suburbs last year with a 19-story project on Windy Ridge Parkway in Cobb County.

Miami-based Dezer Development is also a partner in the project. Dezer and Trump have worked together on other condo projects, including the Trump Grande hotel and condo complex on Sunny Isles Beach near Miami.

The Trump site is near a number of high-profile projects, including the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra's proposed hall and 1180 Peachtree, the new mirrored skyscraper at Peachtree and 14th streets. The towers would be just across I-85/75 from Atlantic Station.

Trump and his son, Donald Trump Jr., picked the site because of its proximity to Atlanta's artistic center.

"We are in the heart of the cultural center," said Donald Trump Jr. We're going to give Atlantans "quality like they've never seen before."

Great find guys!!! Thanks for the information and posting it very quickly! The renderings look awesome and this will definetally be a great addition, however it would have been really spactacular if it was one big 70 floor building, still this is great too! I was always thinking that Trump was going to build something that would have been on Atlanta's top 5 fallest. However I like it, very sharp and cutting edge style...

By the way, Trump was 2 months late announcing this information...

[Lecom]

Trump baffles me. All his buildings are either stunning in design or shitty bland pieces of crap.

I agree 100%

[micropundit]

yes.....

A quess would be that IF Trump does a Buckhead project it would be a hotel with condos as the secondary part of the project.

[Chris Creech]

Seems like those Atlanta renderings are going to change, most people think these are just concept renderings. As pointed out in the Atlanta thread, the whole street level configuration doesn't meet code. Also, different news sources are giving all sorts of different heights and floor counts.

Plus with at least two new condo towers in the area that will be as tall if not taller. It seems that trump would almost have to bump up the height if he was going for any sort of "above the crowd" appeal.

Driving down the connector today though. That lot will give the development a very high profile location from the interstates, and points north (esp. Atlantic Station).

[MiamiSpartan]

anyone have any pix of Sunny Isles, FL?

[trvlr70]

Great for Atlanta, but Trump should have done ONE signature tower instead of two shorter ones.

Anyone have updates on Trump Las Vegas?

I like Trump architecture for some reason. The Chicago one is going to look great!

[firulais]

GREAT UPDATES Thank You Reverie

[Busy Bee]

It's completly hit or miss with me. While Chicago, N.O., Dubai, Toronto Trump projects are cool as hell, then come turds like Jersey City and Las Vegas. It's strange really.

I'm still very suspicious that Trump has changed his gold-plated, Rolex, waterfalls and marble preferences, I just think he is taking the advice that a more modern aesthetic will sell better, and since money is seemingly all Trump cares about, we get gems like TTC, Toronto and hopefully N.O. and SoHo NY.

Sorry, but that L.V. project looks like a building that would be going up in the CHiPs title sequence.

[Scruffy]

HOLY GOLD. mighty might gold there. whewww. gold and a half.

But its interesting that the glass facade is a mere couple floors behind the most current floor

I know, Trump Las Vegas is turning out beautifully!!! :D It appears to be already above the 20th floor. If anyone could give me an exact cound that would be great! Also the tower will be more like 60 floors and not 64 because there are floors that will not be counted such as the 13 floor ect... That would make this project over 1/3 of what it's total height will be...

[SteelCity15]

I dig the facade on it. I'm also a fan of the scenery there in LV...the desert and stuff. Gonna look great there.

[skyscraperfan23]

I Hope Trump keeps building those highrises.

[Reverie]

You know, the crazy thing is, Trump wants to build a 2nd tower of gold right next to the first one! An exact copy. Hard to believe eh?

Though I wish he'd buy the 923ft Ivana site, now up for sale.

Has Trump ever built any other twin buildings?

[hoosier]

Nice to see that Las Vegas' skyline is expanding beyond the strip.

I am surprised that there haven't been any 1000 ft.+ condos or casinos built in the city yet.

[BANKofMANHATTAN]

Trump Vegas is altogether hideous, not surprising in the least, and kind of sickly appropriate. :sly: :shrug:

[dizo1000]

Trump Elite Tower (Trump Plaza Tower) in Tel-Aviv metro, Israel-80F approved (tallest residental tower in the world) The construction is going to start in 2007. no final design yet. there are two proposals for now:

[Dougall5505]

they both suck but the first one sucks less

[dizo1000]

The second is realy suck and I hope they'll build the first one

[dizo1000]

Another Trump Tower in Tel-Aviv, Israel 38F approved
http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m115/dizo1000/R2daytime.jpg

[Scruffy]

of the 2 big proposals. the second one sucks, the first one is ok at best, what's the height?

[CHAPINM1]

As of now, Vegas Today and Tommorow mentioned that Trump Tower Las Vegas is at the 25th floor of completion, that was at least a week ago. During the day you can see progress on it from the skycam from the Stratosphere webcam. It's kind of distant, however it gives you a general idea of the progress. Since that webcam has several projects in it including Sky Las Vegas and Trump Tower Las Vegas, it can be seen on the first page of the Las Vegas forum, also I will add it to the webcam thread and you can check it out there. ;)
