This is a stunning addition to Chicago.
No, they are different. 333 turns a corner. This one is the wall at the end of the room. It needs more height to complete the river corridor in a grand fashion.

Anyway, for the record, since we're in a new thread, I think the resemblance to Torre Mejor is way too close, and hence I am sour on this proposal despite the fact that it looks elegant (if nothing exceptional).
