I looked at the link and saw on the last page what might be very interesting night lighting on the residential upper tier of the tower. Perhaps someone who knows how, can post the fantastic last rendering on this site;

^^ I don't recall having seen the north side of the tower. Thanks for sharing. I like how it doesn't line up with the grid but is rather at an angle. Beyond the shape and obvious height differences, this will also help to diversify the ever-increasing cluster over there.


I do like how the CC has a newly finished roof in that render also.

The night time looking up render on that page is giving me Japan vibes and I like it!

Did not realize the convention center had such a wonderful leafy "green roof."

Also they converted the roads to only travel northbound in the 2nd rendering with the reduced light rail options!

The fact that they're looking at the backward skyline from the deck of Joe's Crab Shack?

Incorrect. That angle is more likely from the area around the Hyatt Regency (Barton Springs between S. First & Congress).

The skyline is also flipped.

That's definitely a woman in a leopard skirt.

Hate to say but I'm warming up to this beast. In isolation, it really can seem awkward and bizarre in not all the best ways. But it will absolutely put us on the map. I can't think of any supertalls being built in the US at the moment (or recently) that are shaped even remotely like this. It's gonna be immediately iconic, and Austin will be associated with it forever. A lot like the Frost Tower in the 2000s, this one will be the thing you think about when you think about Austin in the 2020s.

The part of the skyline is definitely flipped. But I think those people are stock images that were photoshopped into this picture.

I love the narrow north facing look so much...especially seeing the curve

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?
