BigFootsSocks Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) That looks like a logistical nightmare. Look at all that wasted space....it's essentially two small skinny towers vaguely connected in the middle tier, with a Dubai-esque skin on the straight sides, and a WTC 3-looking cross-beam structure for the "box" portion. I LOVE IT. Edit: Interesting, looks like that guy also designed the Kirby Thor Equities project as well.

Perfect location for a supertall . That looks like a logistical nightmare.
