So, this one turned out great. No question about it.
The only thing that tends to rub me the wrong way about it is I’ve always felt it would be better oriented with wider face along the N-S axis (I think that’s my take because there are a couple too many towers in the in the immediate vicinity oriented E-W). That was actually the original design, pre-formal proposal, as I recall someone from SCB describing in the media a few years back. As recounted, they re-oriented to not overwhelm and darken Michigan Ave. Meh. I didn’t quite buy into their concerns, and still don’t.
This is but a quibble I suppose.
Strong work.
