That comet was 43 million miles away. Just for comparison, the sun is about 93 mil miles.

The crane even says "pinnacle" on the side lol.

Honestly I'm kind of glad this won't have a spire, the lack of vanity height is admirable. Just a solid near half a kilometer building. NYC also has a ton of spires.

Has nothing to do with the height. I sometimes think too many here are obsessed with the height. This skyscraper needs a spire because it's a 1,550 ft average looking skyscraper. The New York skyline, more than any, deserves to be crowned with a spire. But more than that, this tower needs it, and was going to get it at one point. That it was scrapped, with little change to design, shows. But I don't care if they put a 300 ft antenna on top. It needs something. They only removed a portion of Vandy's spire, and I'm having withdrawal symptoms.
