I always thought the best view of Philadelphia was approaching from the south on I95. Now that the CTC has been erected, the view from the northwest is giving it a run for its money.

My vote goes to 76 South around Girard Ave, 30th Street.
That view is unreal.

I’m surprise that this hotel build has windows that open. Most that I’ve been to in the US with the exception of balconies, don’t cause they want keep the interior climate under control and not waste energy from excessive heating/cooling due to an open window.
You can see now the small "indentations" where the glass takes on a slight "raised" feel.
Looking at the renderings again, isn't this where the LED lighting is to be placed? Perhaps running vertically up the facade?

hotels usually allow local control of temp for obvious reasons (unlike office buildings) and many have HVAC systems that are connected to sensors on sliding doors or windows so that the unit will shut down if the room isn't closed off. In a high rise like this you likely don't have split systems for each room so temp is probably regulated with VAVs or something.
