I'm really hoping The Republic happens in the form we saw. I've noticed that Block 185 is changing the dynamics of the skyline so that much of it between Block 185 and The Austonian is starting to look a little dull. Of course, I love the W Hotel & Residences, but we need another peak in that part of the skyline. If not, we'll have a weird valley there. And it's not like Block 185 is as tall as The Independent and The Austonian, but it's an attention grabbing building, and that middle part of the skyline is looking a little sleepy now.
If you're a member of the group, you can see this photo that really shows what I'm talking about.
