Great pic! I wish AMLI brought back that bright neon green lighting. I saw that new deal recently and it looked like they threw some string Christmas lights inside the box lol

I personally prefer the new rainbow box they have now. It seems more vibrant and alive.

Yes me too, it is definitely more vibrant and I love how the colors slowly change.

Is that true? They're building a 900 foot building that will be done a year after this one? Man I'm out of the loop with atx

98 Red River is in the early stages of construction now, and it'll be over a thousand feet tall. It probably won't be done within a year of 6XG but it'll be close behind.

98's estimated completion is 2027. I would think 6x is done by end of '24 at the latest.

Since the last few pics from Mopacs and Gillynova this building has really risen alot. I guess they are on the home stretch and can do 1 to 2 floors a week. And every angle looks incredible. It's a big ass building, yet seems well proportioned, even from the North views. I suspect it will look better than any of the renditions we've seen.

I got a good view from Wm. Cannon and I-35 today, and it looks almost as tall as the Austonian and Independent from that location.

Boy that thing is massive. The next 6 months on this one are going to be a lot of fun seeing it cruise into the 700 then 800+ range.
