The Ziegler Cooper description suggests a 34-story tower now.  The rendering still puts it about the same height as the Hess building.  I have to wonder how keen Trammell Crow would actually be to move forward.

Actually, they also mention an 11 story parking garage underneath?  If that's the case, then it will be about 45 floors in total, no ?

The live cam also has a link to a timelapse video on the top right that is definitely worth checking out. Very cool to see how the basement was done and built on to.

Wow, thanks for the link.  What an awesome time lapse cam !  I also love that get a bonus construction view of that huge high rise going up to the upper left side of the angle, I'm guessing west or northwest of the museum construction site.  Well done thank you !!

Is this the construction starting on the 38-story residential portion or just the parking garage ?  Would be awesome if they were starting the high rise construction already !

Are they down to about one pane of glass per day?

 

was about to ask the same thing.  seems like since they got to the crown, the glass has been almost "on hold" for now.  maybe they are finishing up interior stuff and structure on top before closing it all in at once ?  just a thought.  awesome building though.

I have the same question - is there some sort of recent rendering of this "tower" ?  Would love to find out if my wishful thinking of a real skyscraper would be realized, but not counting on it

Before photo:

 

I wish this new project or perhaps another one, would either replace or mask that horrible ugly eyesore known as "AllenCenter Parking" garage !  It has been a blight for decades.
