This makes me wonder if the Riverview will get lighting as well.

Cool pics there!

There sure are alot of unfinished interiors, though. I wonder how many of those empty floors are leased and just not moved in yet?

i would actually be very surprised if it didn't. when they first announced that the riverview would get a matching crown, bronner was quoted as saying that he wanted it to look like a 'renaissance complex' (with rsa tower and riverview) coming around the corner on I-10 east. that guy likes the aesthetics and 'wow' factor of these projects as much as we do on this site. the lighting on the riverview might be different, or even *gasp* better than the rsa tower, so as to make up for the fact that rsa dwarfs it. who knows. what i think we should do is beat up monty in the schoolyard and steal his lunch money until he tells us, because i know that guy knows...

Have ya'll ever had a Mobile forum meet-up? It might be fun. I'm going to be in town soon (maybe around the 17th-18th).

It would be a chance for sahara727 to "beat up monty in the schoolyard and steal his lunch money until he tells us, because i know that guy knows..."

Anyway, I can say things in person that I can't in print, 'cause then I can always deny it later.

sounds like a plan to me. (the meeting part, not the beating up part...)

Well, since Monty can't "say" it in print, we'll await the news!

The other day I saw that you stated more public lighting downtown. Have they said anymore on that matter?

Late July.

Oh wait...




Happy Birthday, sahara! What an awesome birthday present that would be. I got to stay in a suite at the Battle House for my birthday. It was my best birthday ever.

Hey Y'all - Here are some photographs of the RSA Tower project. The first are of the spire being placed on the top, and the second are photographs of the roof of the RSA Tower during the day, and the third are at night. My photographs were chosen as part of the permanent exhibition in the RSA Tower/Battle House Hotel. I hope you enjoy them...

The Spire - www.michaelmastro.com/rsa-tower_spire.html
The Roof - daytime - www.michaelmastro.com/photo_rsa-rooftop.html
The Roof - night - www.michaelmastro.com/rsa-tower_night.html

All photographs are available as 20x15, 30x21, or 48x33" prints.
