    The top of FNC looks like a hypodermic needle in that pic.

    Went to an event on the 50th Floor last night. Building is spectacular - views even better. It's a bit strange being that high in a place this flat. I've been in a lot of tall buildings, but the feeling up there is something different. Stuck my head in Vast to make a reservation before coming down - it looks great. here's one picture looking west.

    That beam you see is the bottom half of one of the triangles.

    Steve's new book with Jack Money coming out. It looks like it should be just as interesting as their past books and provide much new insight into this project.

    I'll be at the book signing if anyone is interested in coming.

    I've seen an advanced copy of Steve's book and it's very, very interesting.

    Steve got involved with this development from the outset and followed everything, even all the various alternative sites that were strongly considered. Everyone will be very surprised by the four or so sites that were almost chosen instead.

    Lots and lots of photos and graphics... I wish I could go tonight so I can get a copy right away.


    Congrats to Steve & Jack. I think most have no idea of the monumental amount of work that goes into something like this.

    I took this from inside the connection between Devon and the Colcord.

    Really a nice little spot:

    Lol. We have 2,000 some odd replies for a tower that is not even confirmed, drawn up, developer identified, or site picked out. Compared to almost 11,000 for a tower that was announced, and built, and completed.

    I think the next thread will be longer lol.

    Did you take this picture on a Sunday morning?

    Nope, Wednesday afternoon but this sitting area is directly adjacent to the Colcord meeting rooms and I don't think too many people know about it.

    The whole wing just officially opened, as it ties directly into the entrance for Vast.

    I hope the area sees more people because it looks like a scene from "Life after People" on the History Channel.

    With that outside bar open, it'll be packed, especially at night.

    Yea, it would have looked even better with all the LED strips working.
