My father snagged these pretty great shots from the water on Sunday.





I really can't believe how tall this tower looks. From some angles it feels like the tallest in the city. Makes me excited for when Waterline gets to these heights... and beyond.

It definitely looks a lot taller than ~570 feet! I'm very hyped for this to finally top out

Can someone with a real-life visual let me know whether the top of the tower is shaped like how I have it drawn? Wondering whether I need to go back and fix the diagram.

Thinking maybe I emphasized the indent at the top too much based off one of the images I found below.

You can really see the angle in the top few floors right now
I think ur render looks awesome
It’s more of an elbow bend in my opinion
The drone vid someone posted before really shows the bend when your looking down on it from above

Thank you. I found the drone video you mentioned and you're right, definitely not the same shape. Probably best then to wait til the tower is finished before making any updates.

Sure seems like a slow process to get the white cladding started
