I love the shots that both T-Mac and Projects gave us of 222 side-by-side with the Karrick Building...the old alongside the new, the small alongside the (well, not big, but bigger). Great shots--thanks for keeping us up to date.

That should really help this building begin to stand out in the skyline especially from the west.

Main, and, my favorite, the view with the Hotel Monaco on the right, 222 So. Main on the left, framing the top of the Utah One Center with the Chase sign. Genius, sheer genius.

I took T-Mac's latest pic and photoshop it by added the rest of the floors on just to give us a feel of how much taller 222 South Main will get. Sure it's not the tallest, but it is a great infill.
What are people's thoughts on the skin of this building? Like or dislike?

Obviously this is a much cooler example (of the IFC in Hong Kong) ...but lit crowns really add a dramatic touch to a skyline at night especially when the cloud ceiling is right near the top of the building...

From this angle I think the 222's skin is going to look very sharp and impressive.
KSL News) Workers hoisted the last beam to the top of a downtown sky-rise on Main Street today.
Hamilton Partners held a celebration inviting construction workers, executives and the mayor to sign the final piece of steel before lifting it atop the building.
The structure will officially open at this time next year, housing offices and retail.
