I had quite the scare when a chunk of ice hit my uber car this morning. Sounded like it was big enough to knock a person out.

Vista is FINALLY coming into view behind BCBS from my office. I've loved watching the crane inch up, but now I can see the core! Other in the office probably wonder what I'm staring at out the window the last few days...

Awesome pics SolarWind.

This is the best thing to happen to Chicago in so long

Donnie77 · #**4968** Posted **Dec 1, 2018, 6:53 PM**

Great update Solar,.

Her glass starting to pick up, stunning

RedCorsair87 · #**4969** Posted **Dec 1, 2018, 7:50 PM**

Absolutely stunning!

BonoboZill4 · #**4970** Posted **Dec 1, 2018, 7:52 PM**

The more glass, the better it looks.

CastleScott · #**4971** Posted **Dec 1, 2018, 10:47 PM**

Phenomenal pics SolarWind-that aviation warning light atop the crane looks slightly taller than the spire atop Trump Tower.

Just a guess I wonder if about 8-10 floors to go till top off?

F1 Tommy · #**4972** Posted **Dec 1, 2018, 11:43 PM**

This is going to be such a great looking building. Maybe the best looking currently under construction anywhere right now.

Mr Roboto · #**4973** Posted **Dec 2, 2018, 6:22 AM**

Great pics. For those of us disappointed in the wolf point south and 1 chi square height reductions, and other potential supertalls we may have missed over the years (spire, water view, 7 s dearborn and sky needle etc) at least we have this fabulous building.

^ LAYERS

And to think one more frustum to go. I am so grateful for Gang and Dalian Wanda alike.

I concur - It also gives you a great sense of how much more height there is to go still....

Yeah still around 17 floors to go before being T/O.

No each frustum is 12 floors except the top which is 11 and a parapet. So judging by the webcam they have about 8 or 9 floors left before being T/O.
