It’s the Dominion Enterprises building in Norfolk, VA. I used to live there years ago and am just too lazy to change it. I just left San Antonio for Alaska last year but still visit SA often.

They've got to be higher than that...I hope.

Here is a presser regarding sales from May 2018 (after a year of pre-selling).

I count 17 floors above and including the pool level in the rendering and model. It looks like they're working on the 15th. So two more above the current floor plus the crown (or parapet, or whatever the top is). It should top out at about the top of the concrete poury thingy... or thereabouts.

The actual building doesn't seem to match up exactly to the renderings on the website. The renderings show four shorter floors above the middle "cut-out" section, with three taller floors above that, plus two more penthouse levels. The actual building had five shorter floors, then three taller floors, plus whatever they build above that. It seems maybe the model in the above post is more accurate... or possibly a combination of the two with the height shown in the model plus the top penthouse shown in the rendering. We shall see.

Hey, Jack, I added four more pictures to the Google page of this hotel. I hope you still have the link. If not, let me know. I also added a new pic to the Frost Tower, which I think it's quite beautiful. Enjoy.

I don't work mainly downtown anymore, but I still have to be in and around downtown from time-to-time. I hope to take more pictures. I did take a picture of the Canopy as seen from a distance on June 26th 2019, but do not have a place get to put it. I might just add it for a nearby business in a few minutes.

Enjoy,

-Fry

Hey Fryguy, I appreciate your posting these on the Google link. But it just shows an error for me. Can you please just post them on this forum?

Thanks!

I'll do it here because it's good for everyone to know how.

Create a profile at imgur, flickr, or any photo sharing site. Upload the photos, then they will provide a link to the photo. Copy that link and paste it into this forum like this:

[img]***https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47991117971_d4933c8cf2_b.jpg***[/img]

NOTE: I added the three asterisks before and after the link (which is Raul's photo above). Don't include the asterisks... just paste the link between the opening and closing brackets. I included them so the link doesn't work, allowing you to actually see it. If I hadn't, it would have posted the photo thus making this whole explanation pointless.

Hope that helps. When in doubt, click "quote" on someone else's photo and you'll see how it works.
