Holy crap this thing is starting to fly. Can we get it's sister tower two in the works? And i know we've discussed it before but it reminds me every time I see that point of view^^^. Please dont build townhomes south of OMPW. Give us 40 floors, thats all we're asking.

Mainly because the parking structure is being done separately, so they were able to take off.

Essex should fly too as they only have like 80 spaces I think.

Did I remember seeing that phase 3 of this project are going to be a group of townhomes going on this lot?

More than likely.

^10 floors down... 70 to go...

r18tdi · #**816** Posted **Aug 3, 2017, 12:54 PM**

So are these parking levels? I haven't spotted anything that looks like a ramp. Could just be me...

Yes - the giveaway is the green rebar (coated against salt), ramps can come later.

The parking portion has not been built yet, it will fill that empty space on the south west part.

If you look at the side of the south shear wall, you can actually see the outline of the attachment points for the future ramps.

But I assume that the parking must at least extend some into the constructed tower portion, as otherwise these south facing areas would have no windows.

Could this be why we've never seen a rendering of the south elevation? I've always been curious as to what this side of the building will look like. My guess is we will have a multi story blank wall until we hit the amenity deck.
