Dominax Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 The Tower of Real TexasThis tower is the third tallest skyscraper in America. It is the tallest on the west of the Mississippi River. This tower is 1305 feet high rise above sea level. This tower will get more of attention throughout the downtown area. This tower has two 70 feet antennas on top that make this tower over 1380 feet tall.The photo image http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v707/dom...OfRealTexas.gifDowntown View of this tower(1)http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v707/dom...04/Houston2.bmpDowntown View of this tower(2)http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v707/dom...04/Houston3.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i must admit, i am going by some of the 80's protocol- i.e. the never built Bank of Southwest Tower, etc. i honestly remember reading about height restrictions around downtown, but you know how the memory is. Anyway, i would love to see a tower of that height in Houston. I mean, come on! We are #4 in population and steadily growing. LA is not really known for its "towers", so that really only leaves Chicago and NY- Of course Vegas and the Lower Florida area are getting nods from developers. A question- why that location? I don't mean down town per se, i mean why in that specific location DT? Why not more towards the middle to keep it symetrical(skyline wise)? Any thoughts?m.

Talbot Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I think a tower of that height would be better in the center of downtown also, so that its tallest and then they get smaller going outwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I think it's probably only something that he photoshopped, but it would be pretty awesome if something that tall was a proposal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
