Nice shots! I will say the western facade of the shorter tower is pretty bland now after they VE'd out the vertical spandrels on that side. Minor gripe.

It looks good from this view. Imagine when it's all done.

So, from this vantage point, will its final height split the difference between Park Hyatt and St. Regis?

great shot! WPS should help poke through the plateau between Trump and Sears, but can't help but think a 2 tower scheme with one 1000+ footer would've been even better

That's a very monotone view. Could definitely benefit from some blue glass towers

Wow, she's getting up there..... Great pics!

Love the look of this tower, and am super excited to see it evolve into the spring/Summer in the skyline. This one is tied with St. Regis as my favorites during this past boom

Great shots.
