It's looking great, wow.

Looking good! Love the facade! Is the tint a darker color like the renderings when it's sunny?

I can't wait to see how this looks once all of that elevator scaffolding starts to come down.

The crowning ceremony is well underway.....

That angular appearance at the eastern side looks like work for the setback wth the "silver" apex...

Zerton · #**3392** Posted **Mar 6, 2018, 8:27 PM**

Wow - almost done. I wish it was 300 ft taller. I'm so greedy...lol.

"That angular appearance at the eastern side looks like work for the setback

"The apex skin will be my favorite part of this whole thing...- Prezrezc

I hope you get that variegated crown that you've so often mentioned, Prezrezc . .
though, as artspook has warned before . .
I think the skin is uniform over the entire tower . .
In some of the renderings , the renderer's imagination has
over-romanticized atmospheric lighting conditions . .
lending hyper-dramatic coloration to the crown . .
though I may be wrong, of course . . you can only hope . .

Yes, that view - not to throw cold water on our excitement, but add another 200 ft to it (the proportions would be the same at that deck angle), and you see the impact it would have. Amanda Burden should be arrested.

Does anybody know when it'll top out?

Evil gray curtain wall is looking FRESH

WIGGLEWORTH · #**3398** Posted **Mar 9, 2018, 6:50 PM**

It still has a bit more to go on the crown. So not for at least another month.

Crawford · #**3399** Posted **Mar 9, 2018, 7:44 PM**

This building is gorgeous, but as others have mentioned, it's a crime that it was shortened due to wealthy NIMBYs.

mm, it certainly could have used a few hundred feet more.
I still expect the top to make an awesome prick of it in the skyline, over that skyscraper playground.
It seems tall enough to be noticeable, until they build more of these supertalls.

Bah, we're all the same on here in that respect.
