Digging the crown. Wish it was slightly bigger though.

A high-quality tower of good-but-not-great height in a highly visible location. Overall, a big win for Chicago.

I should have clarified. I wish the crown was taller.

A few from earlier in the week..(Mod, I'd appreciate it if you didn't edit these as it already took me about an hour to edit the size myself)

The condensers have shocks

Is it a plane? a train? no its a tower crane!

Penthouse. 18' ceilings

Bravo! Awesome images of stuff and views you don't get to see everyday. Never seen the roof of the Merchandise Mart for example. Pretty cool. Gracias.

Beautiful pics guys

My guess would be that it's an elevator housing, I'm almost positive that any new riverwalk built, private or pubic has to be ADA compliant.

Great images! Very impressive building and construction. That crown is a pleasant surprise. The scalloped exterior gives the building an added sculptural feel. Nice!

to everything. The building. The photo sets. The crown.

dropdeaded209 · #**1695** Posted **Oct 28, 2019, 10:11 AM**

please don't kill me for making this connection but does the stripy crown remind ANYONE else of the silver and blue pattern on the Thompson Center?

Looks like the white sections crown wont be back-lit from those site photos. Hopefully they will be up-lit?

There will be a green roof on the last north and south setbacks where there will be lights directed at the crown. Should look sharp.

A few more

A friend sent me this. Last CW unit outside of the skip hoist and the tower crane's supports

Bonus of my home town. In my opinion, one of the best skylines in the world. I don't know who took it but my guess would be David DiCello. He is Pittsburgh's version of Nick. Go follow him.
