Too bad the railyards buildings are sideways. The blocks run E-W, not N-S. Pretty terrible photoshop job too.

Why is the Waterline all the way out on E Riverside?

ILUVSAT · #**2366** Posted **Mar 23, 2023, 5:44 PM**

^^^And, it's too tall.

I think Waterline is actually in the lake on the last photo.

big yikes

I try not to be too harsh on here, but that is an absolutely abysmal Photoshop job.

Upon closer inspection, it's actually floating in space!

I think the Fairmont’s spire is holding it up.

Hell, yeah! I can get behind that. A 1,000' skyscraper for a spire.

Man, structural engineering has really taken some new and interesting turns.

I got this from Martin on Twitter. It looks like the project is on schedule so far.

Thanks ATX.

Now the long wait for the on time schedule of July 2025 for the topping out.

July 2025 seems to indicate the base of the "roof." There is an additional 20' of parapet above that. So, actual topping out may not occur until August or September 2025.

jake.robs · #**2379** Posted **Mar 25, 2023, 5:47 PM**

Wilson needs to get its act together and get approved so these two can top out at the same time.

I think you are right. They did not go to the top. Good call!
