It's starting to peek out above the Green Water plateau now.

It's starting to really show up now from I-35 from around the Moody Arena and upper deck. This thing is also absolutely gorgeous in the afternoon light when seen from the west.

It surprised me from Burnet today. Even from there you can tell it's something different on the skyline.

It'll be awesome and very easy to identify when it is finished up to its sharp point.

This is just so so gorgeous. It's funny, I think our skyline is kinda of growing into a sibling of London's. I can believe I'm saying this, but I understand the blue glass now....and appreciate it.

I think having more organic silhouettes is what brought me around. Bravo

ps. Indy's crown lighting looks terrible in that 4th shot.

Amazing image. I love this city.

Already Block 185 steals the show from any south or west view. It is by far the most visually interesting building. Nothing else holds a candle. Now I just want something else of that caliber so it doesn't look like we only have one stellar building.

I think the Republic would qualify.

I don’t. That’s just a glass box with a less box shape.
