UtterlyUrban Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Those images really highlight the imperfections in the horizontal tile grout lines (dark line running horizontally in middle of several fields). Hopefully they will be fixing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud713 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Whoa! The building looks amazing with that lighting. I presume they will do the same in the southern facing recesses? And yeah, hopefully black out curtains suffice/they don't get too many complaints from guests. The original renderings showed a vertical Le Meridien sign on the southeastern corner.. are there any signs of that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UtterlyUrban Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Oxbow7 is nice. Good food, good service. My brother and I enjoyed it and can recommend. The rooftop bar is amazing.
