Literally and figuratively? Treat that rhetorically

The spire is must thinner than I anticipated. Like the building itself, its much thicker when viewed on the north-south axis than the east-west axis.

Do we have an estimate on topping out date?

Don't hold your breath. I contacted NBC10 several times the last long stretch that thing was out and never heard a peep.

Gorgeous building; love the clean lines and the symmetry

Thanks for the resize. It was hard to tell if too big from my phone.

Wow. I didn't realize just how high it's gotten, and just how close it is. I so wish I were closer to the city so I could see it rise in person. Perhaps it's an illusion, but I also never realized how much space is between the two Comcast towers. Guess Arch Street Pres. is way bigger than I thought.

It's not just the road, there's also a church between the two buildings, but yeah, it's surprising how far apart they appear.

wow, those are some of the best photos yet, thanks for posting them. The lantern is looking great, between its completion & the removal of the elevator system hanging off the west end it'll slim this guy down a bit, this is really getting exciting

Cool. Looks like they're almost half way done the spire in height. I'd say the building is at 1,051 feet right now.

[Mr Saturn64]

^ If it's 1,050, it's taller than the Chrysler Building, and the third tallest in the country outside NYC and Chicago. It's only behind Salesforce in SF and Wilshire Grand in LA.

About 10 feet taller, so 1,061 feet

TK, can you add the remaining spire to one of the above images? So we can visualize the height to be added?

^stunning pics, tco!
