Anyway, I don't think I've seen a single building, yet, that didn't change form from announcement to groundbreaking. i've learned to be patient and take projects as they come and announcements with a grain of salt.

And hey, it could be worse. We could be a bunch of skyscraper geeks in the 1960s. I guess you'd have to be high on something back then for them look good, but if you were a common square you'd be sol.
Looking back over the past 10 years or so of Austin's biggest projects, the only ones that I can think of off the top of my head that improved from their first rendering were the JW and Frost.
