I dare to say it could be a new signature tower for Denver. It may only be 43-stories and about 612' tall, but it's on the opposite end of downtown from Denver's big three. Two Tabor center will rise above a sea of 20-30 story buildings.

Nearby, also on this end of downtown are the Four Seasons (640'-10") and 1401 Lawrence (587'-3") projects in addition to Two Tabor Center (612').

Denver's existing Big three are on the opposite side of downtown and are as follows; Republic Plaza (714' roof), 1801 California (709' roof - 738' Antenna), Wells Fargo Center (699' roof - 705' Antenna). So the new big three will almost mirror the existing big three in the skyline.

Then there is the standalone 1999 Broadway (545' roof) built in 1985 being mirrored on the opposite end of downtown by the Spire (525' spire) as dominant medium size skyscrapers in Denver's skyline.

In other words, Denver's top 4 tallest buildings are getting counterparts built opposite to them in downtown. Denver's 4-tallest will soon become Denver's 8-tallest. Denver is doubling it's number of 500+ footers!
