Which is really interesting because the floors for Frost offices end at floor 17, so I thought this would be the last one for the five elevators.

Just passed by the site, lights are on, and it's not neon. I am guessing they are testing the system as they put more glass up. Such a pretty building it is coming out to be.

Looks great so far! Can't wait to see what the end product will look like.

By my estimates it should be about as tall as the crane closer to the current frost building. So that actually is going to look great!!

I think it will be just a little higher than the taller crane... 26.5 perceived floors. (Thanks to Raul for the great photo as always).

See that sliver of light? It's been there ever since they poured that floorplate. That's also right next to the column that was poured before the floor. That's what makes me think it might be a double-height floor for a conference room or something.

Wrong floor. The opening, or taller floor per floor area, is the floor above. You can see how the makeshift (before they pour the concrete, which should be done today) floor plates are lower at an angle.

I guess I'll just see whatever becomes visible when they remove the scaffolding from one or more of those two stories of the building.
