And then WPS will be just to the side of that. From nothing to a very imposing vista

Just imagine the visual impact a fully grown (950 ft) Wolf Point South could have looking down Orleans. If WPE has this much of an impact, not yet topped out, the addition of its taller sibling will dominate for decades.

From this angle, WPS will look as tall as Sears.

I suppose anything could look as tall as anything from the right angle. But yea it'll be a good vantage point

By the looks of it from the last pictures, the core itself is around 26 or 27 floors? That would be close to half way floor count wise.

Too bad they have to cover the columns because they are beauties and fit nicely with its surroundings!

^That's my only gripe with this tower. I am begging Goettsch to go with square cladding vs stupid round tubes which make no sense. Begging!

I second that motion, this tower is all right angles. Carry that through to all details.
