Nicely polarized glass.

Some from today. I think the sunset created a bit of a bronze look on the spandrels mullions (thanks @drcastro), not sure actual color. In either case - it's going to look incredible when done.

^ Did you perhaps mean mullions, as opposed to spandrels?

Yes, thanks - fixed. I am no expert!

Also, does anyone know how these spaces will be treated? I'm guessing column will be clad and that material will stretch to the curtain wall - eliminating the gap. On the other hand, if that were the case, why would there be vision glass paralleling the column?

Anyway, as always thanks for the fab pics!

This rendering seems more accurate:

From other angles, it looks like the columns will be clad in a satin metal, square column wraps with a reveal running up each side. It does look like they kept that perforated metal skirt around the soffit, but moved the hemline up 3 floors to show a little more leg. I like the change, the taller expressed columns make the base feel a bit more grand and soaring.

Looks like they decided to pull those seven western and eastern columns out so they’re even with the floors above, thus eliminating the small cantilever above the fifth(?) floor.

Edit: So, basically what @ardecila said :)

Chicago's commitment to greenery really makes it standout among American cities.

Looks quite a bit different than previous renders. A lot more outdoor/terrace space.

^ I wonder if the added outdoor space is a response to COVID. Give the tenants more outdoor or flexible space, just in case.

Also, that Chicago Municipal Device (Y logo) at the point is an awesome touch. I just love that.

I highly doubt it.

Love the boat effect as it's sailing into ice.

Ha, thanks! Af first I had the boat fully masked out so it was totally over the background ice, but I thought a low opacity blend was more appropriate.

Haven't seen any news about this but they are past the halfway (30th floor) mark.

Nothing daring going on here, but this site will still turn out to be world class
