I tried writing Schostak, today, about the height of the building, and they told me they can't (or wouldn't) release such information. In one of the renderings, it looks around the same height as Compuware, which is 230 feet or something. But, in the picture with the First National, it looks way taller, and the First National is significantly taller than Compuware (307ft to main roof), so who knows. I'm not sure who the architect it, either, so I can't email them.

Anyway, with the retail on the first floor of both the tower and the garage, the fountain at the corner of the site, and the "hanging" ivy screen along Monroe really make this thing better than it could have been. They could have put up another One Kennedy, but went with something a bit more significant.
