The rowhouses on Widmer are being saved as they were thankfully protected by the city recently;

How much direct sun will that pool realistically get on an average summer day? I can't imagine more than an hour or two at best, even if oriented optimally. Seems like something better served as an indoor pool. #focusgroupofone

Ha! Is it just me, or is the fenestration of this different than the renderings? Meaning, are the windows more narrow?

^ Sorry, to clarify, the metal grey panels on the tower portion above the base appear to be a thicker width on average and the windows in the tower portion narrower in width than the renderings suggest. At least from the angle shown in that last photo from Friday.

Can someone gets some photos of this? It's almost complete and then we can close this thread off from this section.
