Thanks for the updates pwright, bhunsberger, and nmkef!!! Looks Great!
I was downtown on Saturday visiting a friend who lives in Onni's Hope+Flower. When I was there, my friend introduced me to 2 new people who moved to Los Angeles from out of state. One of them lives in the smaller tower, and moved here a month ago from Tennessee, and the other moved from Atlanta, here earlier this year and is looking for an apartment to rent in downtown. I was surprised at meeting real life people who have moved to Los Angeles during the shutdown and have chosen downtown as the place to look... and that it's in the year 2020 at that.
Also, the Onni Hope+Flower complex has the only TOWER (above 13 floors) rooftop pool in all of Los Angeles, and they have 2 at that. I never realized that up until that project, every property that has advertised "rooftop pool" either meant that it is the rooftop of a 7 story or its advertising rooftop for a pool on the podium of a taller tower. These Onni buildings have pools on their tower summit and they are the highest pools in Los Angeles on a building. Whoa! Epic!! I was in the hot tub looking at eye level of the rooftops of Circa, Aven, and the rest of downtown and the city. These Onni people must know people in city hall to be getting the first dibs on what could be relaxing building codes.

New lighting on Herald Examiner looks great... the new home of Arizona State University's school of Journalism
We also got Lighting on Onni's office building a while back (seen in the bottom right) and how the heck is Onni the only residential developer with logos at the tops of their RESIDENTIAL buildings, like... EVER?! I'm a little bit obsessed with them now in how they are getting all these exemptions. I do wish for us to take down all physical logos on the tops of towers from now on, and replaced with see through digital that doesnt impact the aesthetics of building (looking at you US Bank tower).
