This building is really going to improve the look of the boardwalk and the skyline!
I'm not at all sad to see the old concrete go, this is going to be a beautiful building

You got some angles there that are interesting. In the third pic you can see The Vic crane base and it really shows what that development is going to do for that part of the skyline.

Also the one with the boardwalk is good... the scale of the powerplant is interesting...

I think that is the Danish flag that they are flying, not the Dutch?

Its Danish.

The Dutch Flag is red, white, and blue and that is a white scandanavian cross on a red background... Denmark's flag.

This looks good. I wonder if they will get it completely sealed off before the winter. It seems like the exterior cladding is taking quite a long time.

I was thinking the exact same thing! It's gonna be huge. Another 36 feet on the left side of the tower.
