How many pictures of the same building can be posted and "wow" still come out of my mouth? Every picture is like a new structure.

From that angle, it looks as if though the tower could topple over.

WOW, the waves are getting even more extreme! I don't know about you guys, but I like they railings, they are adding more mass to the waves and another layer of texture...

Gaudi




Makes you wonder—is this the future of modern architecture? Could organic modernism become Art Nouveau for a new age?

Great updates !
I never thought of Gaudi's architecture but it's true. Is organic modernism neo-art-nouveau ?

You will be able to see Aqua at the end of Rush street from the corner of Rush and Division. I just noticed today that you can see Aqua's crane poking up from there. Also, you can already see the corner of BCBS poking in. That is only going to make the already lovely Rush Canyon that much more impressive.

Anyone know how high the structure is currently? It doesn't look much more than 150-200m tall.
