I agree with Mr Saturn64. Not to mention we always knew the logo would be there, but your post is worded as though you had no idea it was coming.

I have to ask. Is the lighting on the South facade complete? Not every floor is lit and the one's that are only extend for a certain portion of the floor (think east to west). Or does the design call for this sporadic layout?

I personally like the logo. I really don’t think it takes away

That gap toward the top has been driving me nuts for months. If it's intended to be a gap, it looks more like they missed a spot. The lights are at regular intervals in all but that spot, it seems.

I asked the same thing further up. I figure it's gotta be from Wistar, or else a drone.

Yes I did. It's quite possibly the best place in the city for skyline viewing. It also gives me yet another reason to wish the Centennial Tower had been built.
