I won't complain about the design much, unless it ends up with 20 story stains.

I’ve gone the other direction: I think it’s turning out better than I thought. Still many features to appear, so my final opinion could change.

I know, I'm clearly unhinged and need to be committed. Maybe it's just that part of the base with the thick orange panels that really bothers me.

They should just add some yellow panels in to please me

I think everyone needs to go drive through WC and remind themselves of the very low standards over there. Def not UT housing haha

Hahah, good point. I haven't been to WC since my time in real estate.

Just hoping this reads big city supertall and not UT themed in the end (and again, no shade against UT). It's a big deal for us and my hopes are about 1,022' high!
