Lol this person always is the first to complain about the construction progress when things appear stalled. When it is raining there is plenty that can be done internally; and lifting the crane requires coordination with the city to block off W Peachtree while they lift it into place.

I went by there this morning wearing my best "Karen" attire, had a stern word with the manager and handled it. It will top out for the 4th of July. Way to go.....ME.

This building is already starting to be seen all around the city like BOA tower. Impressive and we still have ways to go. Think it's gonna feel way taller than everything else because of elevation too.

The two newest floors are the taller floors. If the rendering on the website is correct, we see 18 floors above the podium and then these two taller floors, and then 20 floors above this plus the crown. Given that info and using Julian's photo from June 19, here's a really bad photoshop showing how tall the tower will look when completed:

If you loved that last horrible photoshop (I literally made it in Microsoft Paint) here's another janky one showing how the final height will look from Brookwood:

This is great. I've been waiting for a super tall for a while now.

It seems like all of the new proposals and new construction are going to halt for a long, long time.

It appears that they can't raise the crane until they can attach a new brace for the crane to the floor that they are at. Once attached it will be raised and that looks like it shoud happen fairly soon.
