This one almost looks like the top of a church. Maybe they would go for it

Wow...I like this! Better flow at the top rather than the design bow.

This building is quite thin, at least the E-W dimension. Walking by it, it does not look large along those sides (what's gone up of it so far, anyway). This will possibly look quite striking from the N and S.

Quite thin indeed. What's the top penthouse square footage? Has to be 2/3 floors right?

It would be pretty cool if they lit the setbacks at night. Although I'm not sure since those would technically be peoples personal terraces. Hopefully there's some sort of lighting

The main tower is ~90 ft. wide across the short (N & S) sides.

Getting some Comcast (Philly) vibes with this design. A positive IMO.

I quite like this project. Its bulk will do wonders to aid this portion of the skyline mass. Hopefully some of the surrounding blocks will fill in as seen in post #2003.

WOW--JDL knocked that video out of the park! Take note WPS: That's how you hype up a tower.
