Thanks! I can take a photo from that intersection several times a year, as I visit Pittsburgh every now and then.

Any timeline for the future phases of this project? So far it looks very isolated.

It always makes me so pissed seeing all that was destroyed for the stupid Civic Arena. The Lower Hill if it survived would be one of Americas greatest and most historic urban neighborhoods if it still existed.

Nothing official yet. Q4 2023 completion for the FNB Tower.

It basically just started, so yeah it's gonna be a bit isolated since there's nothing else U/C... but it's really only about a couple blocks from US Steel Tower, et al.



Here's a good link for the project with great views:

Pittsburgh ,a most impressive city skyline. FNB will add greatly to the skyline in that location.

No doubt it's among the best skylines of this size, in the whole world. Would have been even better if the Cathedral of Learning and nearby highrises were much closer so that the two skylines fused. The downtown skyline is in the backdrop in this photo:

In Pittsburgh for the first time in ten years (great city!), and had to check out this building site. The developer of this project has really helped rejuvenate my hometown in Delaware over the years and they generally turn out a quality product.

Can someone please update the thread title? The building will have 26 floors, not 24. Thanks.

From the livecam today. 8 or 9 floors left til T/O. The final height will be about as tall as the crane is right now. Cant wait for the rest of the hideous parking to be covered.

The site would've been perfect for a 1000-ft supertall IMHO! Glad to know that Pittsbugh is building something but there was a lot of potential in that site. Can only wait until the final product is finished.
