For those not aware, every Friday night through June, Cira Green on top of the parking garage, will have a Beer and Wine Garden hosted by World Café Live. The hours are 5:00-9:00 PM...

It means "to understand completely". Like, "You say you're a C++ guru? Pfft! I grok it!"

Yep. Not a techie, but love me some Stranger in a Strange Land. As to FMC, has anyone heard any intel on the restaurant and opening dates?

It looks like the gapping space is finally getting filled in.

No, please, finish. I have no idea what you were about to say.

I swear, I wasn't thinking about that, you know, filling in gaps.
How naïve I must be! LOL

Timelapse of the NFL Team Logos on FMC last night.

This was after the draft was over. During the draft, it was live relative to the team who was actively picking.

Nice. The first Cira Center is always well lit, so it's nice to see FMC continue this trend.

Eagles are at 0:23, if you're looking for them.

TempleGuy1000 · #**3932** Posted **Apr 28, 2017, 11:19 PM**

What is even more epic is the fact that the logos went from the FMC and wrapped around to the Cira Centre. Very impressive.

R5Ryder · #**3933** Posted **Apr 29, 2017, 10:11 PM**

is there any video of the logos on both Cira and FMC?

Cira Centre + FMC might have just secured the 2018 draft on awesomeness alone -- can anyone name any other city in the US that can do building-wide graphics like that? not being competitive, but i can't recall ever seeing something like that in america
