So do I! In addition to that, I keep on imagining how much denser this view of Center City will look once 2100 Market, 1911 Walnut, the W, and 1300 Market are all complete! Each one of these towers are going to fill major gaps* in the Center City skyline. The skyline seemingly gets better every year!
*The W will make a big impact rather than "fill a gap", per se. At 582', the W will be taller than the Residences at Ritz-Carlton (518') and City Hall (548'). Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe part of RATR will be visible. The Girard Trust Building will be completely blocked out, and City Hall will still be visible.
