Great shots, Mopacs. That view from I-35 is really going to look good when the Austonian is finished.

Here's a couple from Congress Avenue February 3







The last one is a night shot from one of those third floor balconies at the Convention Center. I'd never been up there. There's lots of those aluminum chairs and tables, with taller tables and barstools along the railing. You can get some nice shots of part of the skyline from there.

Very nice! I drove by this building back in October while in Austin on a work trip, my first time in Austin since living in San Antonio back in 1990. I was quite impressed by Austin's new skyline and this building will really give it even more originality. I think Austin's kicking SA's @ss when it comes to construction these days. I'm biased toward Austin though.

It looks to be about 2/5ths of the way done now, maybe a little bit more.

I'd say it's about 35/56th's of the way done.
