It is a "Mockup" of the exterior of the building. This is done for the architect and the developer, not the public, so the parties can understand the different job conditions and the overall aesthetics prior to going vertical with the building. It also helps identify any potential problems on a small scale as opposed to during construction when significant cost and schedule impacts could occur.

Its pretty sad that a plain square box lit up is one of the most interesting crowns we have. Ah well, its a step in the right direction, much nicer than 🞵🞵🞵🞵 like the Sheraton.

EDIT: VV I think you got a temporary case of dyslexia with his user name.

Sorry, rookie photography. Thanks hx. I had 2 cameras, but neither one worthy of a night shot.

OCPE from today:

And finally, does anyone know what this detailing on the North face is? Is it going to be like the strip on the south side? I dont think I have noticed it before:

And here's where I look a gift horse in the mouth ...

Great composition Hoover, but what happened to your white balance?

plinko · #**815** Posted **Jun 21, 2009, 12:59 AM**

^I was wondering the same thing...it's just really hard to get good shots at noon though...they get totally washed out.

I somehow bumped it to 'incandescent' mode without noticing until I got home. Ah well. The lens was also pretty dirty and I didn't have anything to clean it with me. Next time: more preparation, less immediate action.

Just call it your *blue* period.

I pointed it out awhile back. Yes I believe that side is going to get a small strip of the dichroic glass as well.

I like your second shot down btw.

Reminds me of the time I did a daytime tour of Roosevelt in ISO 1600... yikes.
