In all sincerity this project greatly surpassed my expectations, especially considering it's been designed by what was, only a few years ago, a rather generic 905 subdivision/executive home developer.

Also there's been a height varience (increase from 65 to 70 stories)
At 70 stories the height will be around 775 feet.
