But, I do think between the central place towers and this one and waterview and turnberry, it could be a bit boring. I wouldn't mind seeing something of a different color, or perhaps with some metal on the facade kinda like the NYT Tower in NYC accept more like the initial renderings. But apparently due to the topography, the Central Place towers and this one will all appear much taller than the twins so they will stand out for sure, I think about 100 ft taller. But remember, the buildings are 470ft. above sea level, so in actuality, they'll be probably about 380ish. I think it looks good.

Who knows, it could turn out cool. I'm all for a tall modern skyline contrasting with our low blocky skyline. Kind of looks like an Architect had the plans on his desk from the early 90’s.

That's going to be one tall building, sounds like it will be the tallest in the area once it is built? 470 ft tall?
