I think we have a hold-out. There's a little four-story, hipped-roof building which is now alone and surrounded by this great cluster of tall structures. Ya gotta love it.

I'm not so crazy about the chiseled corners; maybe they will grow on me. I understand that these features mark the different uses within the tower, but the visual effect is awkward. These chamfers interrupt the eye's motion as it is led up the long vertical edges.

This district certainly is smokin' hot with development!
