I love how the Independent and 5th and West appear to be roughly the same height.

Love the reflection of Frost in the rendering! Smart move by the illustrator!

Nice rendering.

I'm not sure I like the 3 notches although I'm sure the tenants will enjoy them. To me it kind of interrupts the ground to roof smoothness. Aesthetically, the shape of the structure is enough without any added features. But again, they did this as a bonus for the tenants
I suppose. I just wish they didn't. Maybe I'd like it better if they went all out and did it all the way up and down. But then again, that would visually mess with the floor count
being that they cover 2 floors each.
It looks like Indeed employees would be the only ones with access to the balconies. Maybe they requested them.

age old "form/function" argument.

The site plan has been approved and released, so the files should be uploaded soon.

That's the site plan for demo and site prep. This project has two site plans, and the one for the tower is still waiting for an update:

Is this a new rendering? I don't really care if it's a re-post, just bring on the wedges!

I don't think I've seen that one. I just realized this building will likely reflect the One American Center which will be a neat effect.

The Chase tower isn't a small building, but this makes it look small.

Yay, two cranes. The last of the taller cranes will be going away very soon - 70 Rainey, Indy, Zaza and Proper. We're about to get to a point real soon with fewer cranes up Downtown than any time during the last several years. But the Marriott will have two going up pretty soon because excavation looks to be close to hitting bottom.

This Trammell Crow press release was put out after the Indeed lease. There's nothing new in it, but it says the height is 554'. The site plan hasn't been approved, so we don't have the final elevations to verify the height.

Has anyone been by the site lately and noticed how far along the excavation is?

It's far along, was by there Thursday night. Big deep hole, well developed dig.

Wait, so this HAS broken ground?

Nice update. I hope the site plan for the tower portion gets approved soon so they don't have to take a pause in the activity.

The ATX · #**358** Posted **Jul 2, 2018, 7:34 PM**

The tower crane permit was filed Friday. The permit doesn't have the crane erection dates on it yet.

That somehow sounds dirty the way you said that.
