I agree. I thought the renders were ugly as sin but the finished building is actually really nice.
It doesn't look like construction on Phase 2 is going to start any time soon. Looks like they're ready to turn the lot back into a parking lot. I wouldn't expect anything to start until 2018.
Also, unless plans have changed, there is no Phase 3. Phase 2 will be the two remaining towers, as they have a common pedestal base.
