^ cool. Q1, 2019 was what we were told a while ago, good to hear that things seem to be on track.
and with BMO due to start up later this fall, that'll be two more major office buildings to tack on to this boom. it ain't over yet folks! :cheers: |
nice.. any more updates are on the size or design changes to this tower or we pretty much locked in at what we been seeing?

but i don't think there's much reason to expect that they'll be redesigning the wheel at this point in the game. maybe a few floors get added/chopped, but probably not anything too terribly significant. |
^^^^^
I believe I read a article back here in June stating that more floors will be added , idk where they are at with this decision. |
While on the height question, Salesforce on their blog announced that the top floor is going to be an 'Ohana' floor, in their words "During the day, our Ohana Floors are open for employee events and then on weeknights and weekends, these one-of-a-kind spaces with jaw-dropping views are made available for non-profits and foundations at no cost --- aligning with our values of giving back. "
https://www.salesforce.com/blog/2018...r-chicago.html https://www.salesforce.com/company/ohana-floors/ My question with occupied height of 763' via http://www.skyscrapercenter.com/buil...th-tower/14276, and River Point architectural at 732' http://www.skyscrapercenter.com/buil...ver-point/1381 and 150 N Riverside architectural at 752' http://150northriverside.com/#stackingplan, to what extent will this Ohana floor be able to see over them? Seems like the southwest view is going to be somewhat obstructed, not that there's really much to see in that direction. |

those numbers are of course subject to some change as the design gets finalized and tweaks are made. |
^Pretty please sneak Salesforce into this cycle.
|
^Salesforce is arguably the most likely of the big ones to make it this cycle. The proposal has a tenant, approval by the plan commission, and plenty of money backing it.
Beautiful shot by the way, Nick. As always. :cheers: |

but yeah, with both of them having major anchors signed on, salesforce and BMO seem like fairly good bets at this point. with salesforce purportedly starting up sometime early in the new year, i'm curious if any of our forum's many insiders have seen bid docs/CD's for this tower come across any of their desks? |
^Though it's not "official" in SSP banana terms, BMO is already under way in my opinion. I know a guy with Clark who's on site every day PM-ing the tower.
With regard to Salesforce, it's more than likely going to be Walsh as GC. I don't see all of their bid invites, but perhaps someone else does? Industry Christmas Party time is around the corner, so I'll be sure to ask my subcontractor friends if the project has made its way across their desks. |
^Yes, Walsh is the GC for WPS.

Alright WPS.
You're up. |

I really wish the top of the building/crown would have a different design because it's similar to WPE's crown.
