Definitely it's best angle with the playful curves of the first wing in the foreground.

I don't have a photo, but it looks like CHOP is sticking with the black cladding at the crown of this building. It looks...bad.

What a strange decision. Such a cool looking building and then to top it with... that?

I thought it was going to be a digital billboard.

Honestly that would be great, like PECO Building. But the CHOP logo will be on the crown, I think only that will light up

I believe the top metal screen cladding is still not finished, but I assume interiors are well underway

That would make sense, given its prominent location at the edge of UC. I join you in that hope.

Did they ever finish the LED display on top? I haven't been on the SRT recently to check.

Edit: Walked the SRT today and this is indeed finished. No idea if it's actually an LED display since it's still black but its completely finished.

It's just a sign displaying, "The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia." I thought or was hoping it would be a color informational LED similar to the PECO bldg.
