In 50 years when it implodes, collapsing into a giant exhausted heap, to ready itself for a real tower. A strapping 1000 footer.

Ugh, I feel gross contributing to this.

Our Moderator started it He has been the unofficial announcer of all the erections in Austin. Without him, we would never know where and when our next erection will come from. We should be grateful for all the erections ATX gives us.

Nice to see progress on this. Seems like it's been overshadowed by some of the more recent projects, but this one is one of my favorite towers U/C right now.

"Old" rendering:



The image was cached by Google, and is no longer available from the source which was a stone procurement company.

Much more. The before render didn't look too different from the BoA tower. I don't mind this anymore. I just wish it wasn't so dark. There's already enough of that in the area.
