I'm probably the only one who thinks this...

111 stands out in the skyline, but from the street, the tower looks short. I'm not sure why.

It's stubby.

After giving it some thought, I think it may have to do with the height of each floor. Most 400'-ish buildings have around 35 stories. 111, having only 24 floors, may be causing me too perceive it as being shorter.

Pretty sure its been brought up here before, but the Walker Garage frontage along 200 South would be a nice experiment in repurposing garage space as residential. Same for the Regent Street frontage of the massive Regent Street garage.
Atop the LDS garage would be a great place to put a tower. The Federal Reserve building isn't going anywhere and it would be preferable to keep those facades along state. Considering that I think the city should allow a mid-block tower there.

The building could be set back from the Regent street garage allowing for more pedestrian access and sky.

I think it's partly from the fact that 111 fills an empty hole in the skyline when viewed from a distance. From the ground we can compare it to other buildings and object on the ground.

Very excited to see Orphium Alley get chiseled out. Can't wait to see a ground level face lift of both the building on the corner and the parking garage.

Me too! The potential here to do the right thing and open this entire block to pedestrian life without having to rebuild most of the block will be a first for SLC.

I wøuld be interested in seeing where the cafe will be located. Is it easily accessible from the street? If not, all I can say is, flop.

It will be at the south end of the Lobby, accessed from either the Lobby or Main St.

Good to know. Hope it fairs better than Cafe 222 and Bistro 222.

Those are still in business so they obviously must be doing ok, or surviving at least.

Really enjoyed these updated images of the new Regent St. Project from a few pages back on the SLC Thread, so I bumped them up here also. This is really shaping up to be an exciting extension between CCC and Gallivan.
