I'm excited to see it pop up from Zilker. I went yesterday and it definitely looked BIG from some angles, like from the dusty parking lot.

Crappy phone camera shot from Highland, but illustrates how dominant it is already from northern views:

I don't know if anyone noticed or mentioned this before, but this thing is really big. Curious to see what the interior of that pooch out is going to look like.

Oh... forgot to add a

so ya'll know I was kidding.

It's been cancelled. No more pooch.

Or at least that word is.

Honestly, I don't remember sticking that smiley face on the other comment but I guess it worked out.

On a serious note, someone off of west campus posted a photo from one of the rooftops of the night skyline and I could not recognize what city it was until I looked closer. For a second, I thought it was LA or Seattle, but it was Austin. I have to go find that spot and post it here. It was incredible.

It's quite girthy...that's what she said. Overheard on dirty 6th street during SXSW.

Girthy...sounds like a name for the tower to me!

I ran on Lady Bird Lake from Oracle to Hyatt Regency today and I notice it peaking from various angles. I'll take pics next time!

Looks like it's close (or maybe already has) cracked the 600' mark.

I’m viewing 6X mostly from the west and south, and if it’s already 600ft… the I’m kind of worried about the height not coming across in some iconic views of DT… and then at the same time looking ridiculously tall from some of the less photogenic (but equally close) views of DT from the north.
