Now that it's almost done, it's definitely a great addition to the streetscape. It harmonizes with the ESB and makes the corny Graves tower up the street look less out of place. I wish they didn't go for a flat top though. Perhaps it would look better with the crown panels slanting inward.

That's whey I always tell people to have patience when it seems like foundation work lasts a long time. When that work is done, and the towers actually start rising, they rise very quickly, and then it's over.

I was doing Laundry at the Laundromat and while waiting for my clothes to finish washing there was this show on history channel about The Setai, how the workers were poring concrete on 50 something floor than they were leveling the floor and how they were running out of time and were in need of more concrete to finish the floor. It was an interesting show and i would like to watch it again but i couldn't find it on the history channel website. Does anyone know what im talking about? and if anyone actually does know what im talking about can you provide the link to this show.

btw: is it safe to say that the setai has exceeded the 650ft+ mark?

Too bad I missed that. Hopefully I can catch it, I'm always fascinated with these skyscraper programs.

Here's the History Channel Page, though this one isn't airing for at least two weeks according to the website.

Meanwhile, you could be excused for not knowing this is a brand new tower...
