Here are some more webshots of Electra (Sorry for the poor pic quality) -


She fills in the gap nicely. Look at that density!

Just imagine what this pic will look like with NBC, the Bosa tower, Lane Field, and the Pei/Cobb "signature" tower added to the mix.

Well... I think we'd need to pan back a little. NBC is currenlty off pic to the left. And if the Bosa tower is Bayside at the Embarcadero.. it's also off picture to the right. But jsut imagine... cool eh?

In a related matter.. at least to this area in general... Breeza will get a 2nd crane on April 20th or 21st. It will be on the northern portion of the lot... adjacent to Beech?

You could be right about the tallest NBC tower being blocked by that other building, but I think the Bosa tower I'm speaking of (below) would appear directly in front of that cruise ship.

It'll definately be close... it may sneak in there. I love imagining this stuff... hope the market remains viable for builders.
