I think it's more like buying an armoire and trying to get it home in the trunk of your Jetta. |

Hum. The render that incorporates the truss looks good to me...

I can't tell if I like the paneling on this one. Might need to see how it looks with windows installed.

Interestingly the new structure includes 4 new trusses of somewhat similar shape on the second level, directly under the tower portion. I wonder whether they too might be exposed, although not visible from outside, in the finished project. |

Good point about in some small way honoring the history of the Boyd. I'd say it's doubtful that the new trusses will be exposed, as all structural steel elements need to be fireproofed, which is not a good look. |

The placement of the 4 new trusses is interesting to me, but I'm sure they make sense to the structural engineers – one each is at the west and east periphery of the tower, the remaining two are placed relatively close to each other straddling the centerline of the tower. Quote:
