Those last two pictures are absolutely jaw dropping... And to imagine, there should be another few supertalls in that picture in the near future. That Hancock view just keeps getting better than the one from Sears

it will be interesting to see how the glass has changed given all the problems. I thought it was supposed to include some different shading to add to the undulating effect of the building's shape. Hopefully that didn't go out the window.. (see what I did there?)

Problem was with the window frames, people in this thread said the original windows are going up, no design changes
I’ve noticed the zig zag effect as well, especially in the early or late hours when all you can see is her silhouette. SoMi Tower has the same thing going on, depending on your angle. .
Does anyone have an idea of current height? If I remember correctly someone said there was 25+ floors to go?
Aqua is set back 1 block from the plane (E. Wacker) of Vista and Aon is 2 blocks back, so this is a pretty good idea of the height so far. Core probably approaching 900ft would be my guess.

There is glass positioned for installation on majority of southwest face of the building, probably more I can't see
Looks like most objects wrapped in white are glass panels, plus some unwrapped on floors 5 & 6. Scaffolding looking stuff is a climbing framework which they will use to install facade on the shear walls.
Ironworkers installing the new style of window frames farther up the building
From my model. Can't wait till the skyline looks like this.

Ok, you were already a badass and now you've stepped it up another level. Just wow.
