There are schematics on page 57 that show the north face well enough. It's not hiding a thousand-foot blank wall, it's just the flattest side of the building and probably not as appealing for renders.

I wanna seeeee! It's funny to me Austin's skyline is becoming more "big city" when looking south. As we've discussed in former threads, the full majestic skyline views from 35 are nearly gone now and just a wall of Hanover-like towers. I suppose Waterline will help some from 35, but South & East facing views are going to be stellar ....***not counting 290 flyover and Barton Creek Mall***

I'd tend to agree, but it's tough to say until they actually get at least 1-2 floors above ground level. So far, a ton of the work has been specific to excavation, and then electrical/utilities/wiring underground.

Get it while it's hot. By some miracle, the camera is back to facing the site (for now).

Thank you.

Man, I knew it was fixing to happen, but I didn't heed to my concerns...I am officially, for the second time in my life, sick of Iron Works' ribs. It is very unfortunate because I think they have the best pork ribs in town. I just went down there to launch and see what's up.

I'll be tweeting some of your photo updates. How do you want me to credit you? A reference to your YouTube channel?

Increasing growth in the Rainey Street district is expected to bring the closure of a portion of Red River Street until the beginning of South by Southwest in March. The closure is necessary to complete utilities work related to the installation of chilled water lines for 98 Red River St., which, when completed, will become the site of what was once predicted to be the tallest tower in Texas.

In a memo issued last week, the Transportation Department notified members of City Council of the expected closure of Red River from East Cesar Chavez Street to Driskill Street for weeks beginning this month. The total closure is required because of the need to excavate 20 feet below ground, with the necessary machinery likely taking up the entire roadway.
