The illustration needs updating. It is showing a good 12 meters short.

I like how the roofs of Evo and Cira play off each other in this view when you're walking south down the Schuykill trail.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed this... I really like it too!

You can see the opposing slopes of these two bldg from I-95 as one drives pass the Linc. One of my favorite perspective of the skyline and it shows that the skyline is expanding westward.

It really makes an impact going north on 95 into the city. Give it a nice futuristic vibe. Once FMC and Comcast II are up, skyline is going to be really impressive.

I saw them removing the crane over weekend. They also removed crane at 1900 Arch. This one is almost complete it seems.

This building really turned out well. This is one of those rare occasions in which the end product is better than the renderings (which were pretty amazing to begin with).

When seen from university city it really makes it seem formidable against center city.

July 20, from Market Street near the PECO Building.

IDK ... I am really trying to like this building. Giving it time.

Might take until FMC is finished to fully appreciate it's place in the Ucity skyline and the greater.

It would also help to put windows where there are boards up.

Wonder if this building will have an evening presence? Maybe an LED outline of its quirky shape (similar to the BOA plaza in dallas)?

Something we can play a video game on, perhaps?

summersm343 · #**1419** Posted **Aug 1, 2014, 8:40 PM**

They took away the Jersey barriers and fencing and most of the entryway/glass seems to be finished. I wonder if they're going to wrap the exposed support columns in some sort of finish?

A photo my friend posted on instagram. Looks like the exterior is pretty much complete!
