A 43-story rental building at 360 W Hubbard by Habitat.
Oh, great...thank you! It looks similar to that other residential tower nearby...one of my favorites on the river.
I believe that's the crane for 360 W. Hubbard in the background.(?)
Yes. The color samples are up on the building right now. You can see the primary paint color in the photo that Michi took, just to the left of the construction lift (the cream and charcoal grey accent colors are hidden by the lift tower).
This is actually the first time that I've bothered to look up a rendering of AMLI, and I was pleasantly surprised after seeing the bunker-like thing under construction. But is it just me, or do many of the windows seem narrower than they were shown in the rendering?
Now everyone can skyscraper-geek in real time, by just waiting for their smartphone to "ding." Oh how will I ever get anything done in the future, at the rate technology is progressing.
Bravenewworld, I believe you have the renderings reversed on AMLI. They both look hideous, so it's hard to get too worked up about it, but I think the shinier one is the older one. I believe that this one is the most recent rendering, which also explains why the window openings seem smaller:
Admiral tonight. Looks like the paint is finished. Not too bad.
A very nice photo, but I'm not a fan of the building. Still feels very 60's institutional to me. The massing is decent but the building is fail on everything else.
Also, the cladding on the section already up is surprisingly nice. I'll have to see what the rest looks like, but I may have underestimated this one.

I'm actually starting to think amli would have been just bad (and not god-awful) had it not been surrounded by a number of equally beige (and far less neohistorical - for better or worse - and more bland) buildings.

Anyone know when the old Staybridge property will get started again? I know they re-issued the permits to change the GC and masonry contractors over a month ago, but doesn't look like anyone has started work yet
