I mean, it looks like a prototype for Kylo Ren's helmet.
I actually like the sloped window panes. It reminds me of the taller (never built) design of the Fairmont in that respect. And I don't mind the color. The height is great, of course, but the form just looks like Gumby or something. I think we're getting too many of these raised boxes with another raised box stacked on top. And that overhang on the west side...I'm just not a fan. You have to remember both the ATX East and West Towers will look this way along with the 4th & Brazos Tower. All four big and tall towers with very similar designs. It's a race to monotony.

Yep. No confirmed height, but based on the renderings, one of these at least could be pushing 1,000 feet. I estimated 950 feet, but I could be off.
