I didn't see anyone on here verify this, but I was at the meeting tonight and they emphasized more than once that tower "I," the tallest one, is wider at the top than at the bottom - so it's not just some rendering optical illusion. Sort of like 1000 S Michigan, but (as of yet) not watered down.

The whole thing does look pretty well-considered.

I didn't have the time to stand up and ask "Will the under-LSD portion be open 24/7 since you cowardly decided to close the Ohio underpass late at night?" So we don't know if it will actually be a good late-night option for navigation or not unless someone else asked and I missed it.

Or at least put a wall of ivy on it - or a cool mural. Something other than plain, un-ornamented wall.
