[City Wide]

As the Buerger Center was being built I found it alittle odd that it's east face, the side facing the river and giving a cityscape viewpoint, was blank, with no windows, and I also wondered why this new building left a small, more or less unused piece of land along its eastern edge.

And as soon as this office tower was announced it was obvious that it had been planned for in the design of Buerger. So, I assume that even though the footprint of this tower seems tight and compacted, this it is what has been intended right from the start.

I think the Buerger building was also designed with the possibility of adding additional floors to it's height as needed. I wonder if that explains why this tower is taller then Buerger and someday we may see what appears to be a 5 to 8 floor difference in height evened out.
