So, not having tons of posts I'm not worthy to make a harmless joke because you've spent half your life posting on here? Privileged much?

Wasn't he just making a harmless joke in response? And much more tactful and harmless than yours?

And just when you thought Link could not look any taller...

They are finishing up the pieces of the facade on the roof level. I was looking out of a window on the 17th floor of the Financial Center today and the parapet is making a noticeable change in the final height compared to the sections that don't have any facade panels yet. Link just looks amazing. We need more of these properly proportioned towers in Phoenix!

So, I happened to notice the color of the North side of the facade is white and the renderings show it as dark gray. Since the sides already were dark gray when the panels were put into place, I wonder if this was a change in the design and it will stay white or of they plan on painting it once it is completed? I prefer the dark gray in the renderings.

Webcam for the link is now showing more of the green screening on the parking garage! Looks as though the east side is close to complete for screening and they are starting on the north. It will look great when finished!

That photo makes it look like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. I hope it was just an artifact of the way the photo was taken. Link was standing up straight when I passed by it this morning.

I walked around Link yesterday. These are just the poles the screening will be mounted to. It's the angle that makes it look like screening is getting put up, but those are just the poles. There hasn't been any green screening/facade put up yet on any of the sides.

There's a new mobile crane in the Link construction cam at the very bottom. Can anyone confirm if this is on the Link lot? Can't tell if it's for Link or something else closer to the construction cam.

Edit: Figured it out. They are taking the tower crane down. Dang it. I was hoping the Kenect crane would go up before they removed the Link crane.

The Link's website has a fun little interactive floor plan viewer. Pretty fun to mess with and see the floor layout for each level.

Also, check out the new rendering on the Link homepage!

And the moment we've all been waiting for. Green garage panels!

Your photo captures the best part of the view from Little Rituals. It's unfortunate that much of the rest of the view is surface parking where the Suns tore down some old hotels. Still, the food and drink makes the place worth a visit, or several.

Will the lower levels of the garage without the green siding remain as such? It looks relatively unfinished with those cut outs?
