Anyone know if they just ditched the LED strips they were testing on 360 altogether?

I can imagine how nicer Main Street will look after its completion.

The feel presence will be increase by multiples. Now I just hope many of these empty lots around Union Station and Earls will be filled, so it will be a even more “proper” Main Street.

Ya they're plopped in the middle of the food court. Which leads to my next point. Will the food court be relocated, maybe into the old Chamberlains space? Or will it remain there as is, with access to the tower coming from the mall side?

Maybe it will move to the second second floor of the mall that will be getting added.

Yes, the elevator shaft for 300 is in the food court area. the smaller one popping up can be accessed from the exit doors near Starbucks.

The food court will stay where is as renovations have been going on in there during the last year.

They've already renovated part of the food court so I doubt it.

That's too bad. I really dislike that food court. Like a jail cell with the metal cages.

I think of it as more like the interior scenes from the original Total Recall movie.

But that's just me.

To be fair where those cages are located is the part that hasn’t been touched yet.

Somehow I can't see Wpg Sq. food court or other parts of the mall remaining "as is" once 300 Main is up.

Some big steel is being placed horizontally across the top of the elevator cores today, likely for the slip form apparatus.

Looking forward to seeing steel structure start to go up. Is the floor going to be hollowcore?

That foot print is so deceiving to me considering hallway, elevator shafts and stair wells.

Love the progress shots though!

There was a floor plan posted on previous pages. It's a bit off an odd layout.
