Maybe it's time to put aside what cannot be changed in any event, and appreciate this tower for the striking beauty that it will be when finished.
Uhh...we're up about a dozen floors. More than just the foundation has been poured.

... and still over 10 more floors to go? I think that when finished, the MNP Tower ~ Marine Building combination will be a show-stopper.

wow!!

Again, thanks for the super pictures, Klazu!
Wow, what a building, and what a neighbourhood! It's almost like a "second downtown," in look and feel, at any rate.
