This one maybe 100 feet taller at the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Driving inbound on 59 north this morning, it's apparent that the crown will allow it to stick out just above 95% of the other tall buildings downtown, along with its front row seat on the north side to allow it to stick out like a sore thumb. At least from this side of town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time it tops out, the cranes should be the highest any cranes have been not just in Houston, but in all of Texas, since the 1980s.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urbanize713 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Coming in on I-45 from the east/southeast the taller crane is starting to give the JPMorgan Chase tower a run for its money. One more jump and I think it would be just as tall. Anyone know how to look up the crane heights? I'm sure that has to be registered with FAA somewhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rechlin Posted June 15, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2016 I just noticed there is no rebar poking out of the top of the rightmost column, so they must have poured their last complete floor. Subsequent floors appear to be getting smaller, so they are now working on the pinnacle! From this diagram previously posted here a few years ago, I'd guess they are preparing floor 48 or 49 now: 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
