My question is, will this impact how fast the upper levels will rise? Or will it take more time than it has due to difficulties that occur the higher a building rises.

The 360 site shows all the floorplans in an array of levels, if you scroll over the floorplans on any level it shows if the units are sold out. It looks like many of the corner units are no longer available, but alot of the smaller middle units are available. Recently someone posted that the building was 85% sold out. It sure looks like more than 15% are available from what their site would indicate. Is there something that I'm missing in the equation? I would be surprised if they allready sold 85% of the units at this time since it won't even be ready until late next year. Just wondering.
I can't speak personally for Novare, but it should make construction move faster. Less area to construct, equals less time to build each floor, thus making each floor quicker to build making the tower rise faster. By the way, the 17th level is at 174 feet 2 inches high, making it just 2 feet shorter than the Austin City Lofts at that point, and the same height as The Plaza on Republic Square. After about the 20th floor it should hit 200 feet then.
