The more I look at this, the more I see a resemblance to 270 Park. This is like a baby version of it, but I love this perspective.

This is a welcomed addition I feel. Came out great.

Image from link above. What street is this on?

That's from Superior looking NE (and up).

It really has no competition. Even in the aerial. Everything else is looks like a 3 year old standing next to Lebron James.

I would hope one day something could eclipse it in terms of its skyline impact but nothing comes close.

Honorable mentions to Aon Center.

What rendering of 270 Park are you comparing it to? Considering the lack of them so far.

More in comparison to the diagrams or visual art depictions of 270 Park. Its the set backs and the vertical pinned façade where I see a quasi resemblance. From the perspective looking up Superior St.

All topped out, according to Urbanize.
Also some interesting bits about the mass dampers and the parapet lighting.
