New render of Park Avenue West...let's hope it looks this cool

Well, I said I was going to do a render of PAW with that photo that Dougall posted (photo from Flickr). Fox Tower needed it's big little brother in there! So I opened Adobe Illustrator, and went to work.

I did add a small bit of infill in front of the render that doesn't really exist, but oh well, you get the idea...and I hope that i'm at least close with the height. I winged it there, but used our two tallest as guides.

Having drawn everything but buildings in my life, I am really loving some new subject matter. Hope you all like it. It's coming....: )

Mudshark, any way to construct a simular render but looking west from the eastside?? I am curious if the PAW helps fill in the infamous gap!

Drew-Ski.....i did this render last week from a photo taken by MitchE. It's from Mt. Tabor, and don't know how realistic it will turn out to be, but it's of works already in progress in their completed state in downtown, including PAW.

Give me some time and I'll see what I can come up with as far as a render from say, the eastbank esplanade.

I'd say that between PAW and the Fox together as a unit, it will certainly go a long way to fill the gap. Not to mention the ZGF tower adding to the cause.
