Well that's another holy shit moment. Not only not dead, suddenly soon to be the third largest tower in the city. And with a luxury hotel component to boot. I don't have any special intel, but would totally believe a Ritz Carlton. Kind of stunning to think that Rainey will one day soon be the home of a five star . . . but knowing what else is going up in the neighborhood, it's like we're just starting to see Rainey of the future slowly being revealed, tower by tower.

I've been digging arund trying to find a rendering of the supertall so that we can superimpose the two . . . but nothing so far that has a similar view. One thing's for sure, there's no mistaking the fact that M2 is trying to build the slightly smaller sister of the Waller Creek tower.

EDIT: Skidmore Owings and Merrill does a lot of hospitality, but hard to tell if they skew towards any specific brand from their website. It's all mostly luxury, that's for sure.
