We get that but for consumption on these forums, don't you think this looks better/more appropriate?

If you know how to use the Stylish add-on/extension this will help make the giant images less obtrusive:

Code:

div.page > div > table td.alt1 img {max-width:98%; max-height:900px;}

(adjust the height and width to suit)

Did this very quickly so PM me if it breaks something and I'll fix it.

I tried that too. I rarely scroll to see them anymore. I want to see the pic in it's entirety or not at all. Being so big really doesn't enhance the pic.

The spine is almost done.

Can’t wait!

Giant globe looking thing in lobby...

Only a few more pieces, maybe it's finished today.

Hotel lobby.

The small details.

Finishing up outside of the main lobby - Arch St. side.

Pointy edges.

The Empire.

Notice the colors reflect the sunshine & the reflection on the nearby Comcast Center.

Perfect blue sky!

Stupid question but I’m confused as to what reflection is on the Comcast Center besides Mellon?

TechTalkGuy · #**8310** Posted **May 1, 2018, 5:58 PM**

There are two towers in the reflection!

that's what I'm trying to figure out, I see what looks to be Mellon but what's the other one. Looks like CTC but I'm not sure how that would be reflecting as if it were behind Mellon??? What am I missing

Does anyone know when the Lantern will be completely lit? Seems they are still running tests.

From what I could see today only 1 floor is left to be encased on spine, and maybe 1 plate of glass on the floor below it.

And you know Liberty Property and Comcast will maintain a solid upkeep, i.e. power washing those beauties.

You can thank Lord Norman Foster, responsible for the remarkable world-class design.

Just some insight as to what the interior design of the building might be like: http://www.philly.com/philly/busines...-20180503.html

Are the tenants going to be just Comcast? or will there be others?
