I didn't take any pics, but drove by and there is a lot of work starting to happen at Palmtower.

The adjacent on-street parking has been completely fenced off and most of the sidewalk and curb have been removed along with a ton of palm trees. Also, looks like they are starting to move some dirt around.

Awesome to see this finally happening!

Not much of an update but passed by today and there is now excavating equipment on site and the dead palms have been removed.

Clayco has officially broken ground on PALMtower (strange how this is now spelled).

Oh God, you can see how bad Derby is now that they've begun taking down the cover in #2.

What is so bad about Derby? I think it looks real nice.

I drove by and stopped to take a good look at it on Friday. It actually looks better than it did when they first started removing the construction drape. I think it will look much better from the south when all of the drape is removed, revealing the architectural design elements. The part that concerns me most is the north side of the parking garage podium and the tower wall. Just one big beige-ish slab. The rendering seems to show some kind of texture/design for this area. I hope they do something with it.

IF we are going to complain about an ugly high rise the X society is by far the most horrendous thing ever built downtown.

I'd have to agree. I really hope Phase 2 makes it less of an abomination. Lol

They should repaint the Angel's Trumpet mural on the side of that giant parking podium. Since they covered it up. Would love that.

I've been watching Derby's southside get uncovered the past week. It's not really bad at all. The orange highlights under the windows actually have a hue to them and have a copper glare in the direct sunlight.

I dont think it will help much, the additional height will make the stumpy monstrosity look a bit less awful but overall its still ugly as hell.
