Thanks Boris, I thought on my drive home it looked like tower 1 was topped out, but it appears there is still a little more to go. Just the mechanical housing it would seem.

We've started to install accent cladding on the podium. It's a cross-cut sandstone in a sandblasted finish.

I like the sandstone material they are using. It has a nice modern look while giving a bit of a nod to area history.

I also think it'll be a nice combo with the charcoal/brown brick they are using.
