Anyway, remember back when the Liberty Place renderings were first introduced to the public? Liberty Place 2 was much shorter, and was designed like a "tower". They revised it to the height that it is today,(almost as tall as Liberty Place I) and made the "extension" of the building wider. The only problem that I see right now is Comcast's time frame before groundbreaking. A redesign could take months, I'm sure. If there isn't already a "Plan B", then this rendering is probably etched in stone. I'm still excited either way! I hope that they look at feedback from John Q.Public.
Thats certainly a lot of speculation, but I like the optimism for a height increase. The design is fine, but I do agree that is is awkward in how it doesn't stand out from Comcast. I don't like the twinning effect.
