Where are you seeing that?

Anyway, I think this angle just isn't the best for the rendering. The tower looks better when more of it can be seen, but the top here is kind of cut off awkwardly due to how it goes up and in near the "crown"

I hope they're still building the crown. Will be such a unique feature and a first for the Chicago skyline

Hahah ;-)

I am hardly - just repost for discussion sake - probably a bit more lately. There are others here who have access...

I prefer SoLo which would have been great if we picked up the Lucas Museum nearby...

In the rendering it looks like every horizontal line is lit up. They are all significantly brighter than the columns.

That's even better, why didn't i think of that?

What about Soop/Soup?

Does anyone know what the rent will be for various units? I'd assume it's a bit pricy given the amenities. This will be entirely rental units, right?

You can see the top slightly better...

^ looking at the horizon, i think we can declare that NEMA is now taller than OMP.

chicago officially has a new tallest south of congress.

Good catch. Way to use the horizon as a benchmark.

*Declaration noted*

OMP's reign lasted for 11 years, I doubt NEMA can hold it for that long

Dear God I hate that view-blocking building (BCBS, that is)

Vexxed is that you in the last shot hovering over Nema once again trying to best us all?
