The jury's still out on this tower but this is a pretty impressive shot of the skyline.

I imagine it's going to look much better when the white exterior is applied. That's quite a shot of our skyline. And Hanover West Peachtree still isn't finished.

If nothing else, this makes a big impression on the skyline.

Was there ever an official height posted anywhere? That's gotta be pushing 500'

Those lines on the Icon garage are maddening. I guess they're supposed to be fun/artistic/whatever but to me it just looks like someone fucked up.

i hope this one turns out less bland than it is in its current state. when it was first announced, i thought it looked to be one of the nicer proposals... now i'm not so sure.

It a joke as far as screening that massive parking deck. Why do developers hate Spring Street?

In contrast the Amli screening looks really cool.

This erection is definitely growing on me, lol. All kidding aside, I really do like the white, I think it adds some needed difference from the other somewhat drab brown colors of surrounding buildings..

I enjoy the white as well- although I'm really waiting out the final product to see if I like the finished product or not. The massive white blank walls are really odd, IMO.

Its the elevators. Must have been too narrow to have the elevators internal

The white is turning out really crisp! I'm enjoying how this is turning out more and more. The tower portion at least. I think everyone knows how I feel about giant parking garages.

I think that whole foods will cover a lot of it, hopefully..

Unfortunately not, due to the grade change. Whole Foods only goes to the bottom of the design of the parking garage:



We really waste block space here in Atlanta. Midtown DRC's guidelines are insufficient considering the limited walkable land we have currently and the anticipated influx of residents to the metro. The Whole Foods and public are just two examples of groceries that could be incorporated with more density on large blocks.

Based on those patterns, it appears the image in the rendering is pretty close to the appearance of the actual mural.
