A second quarter start for this tower would be insane, anyone know if they have all approvals in place?

Nothing wrong with this proposed tower--I rather like the look and horizontal lines of the floors and retro mid 20th century modern design. Reminds me of a much taller Seagrams Building. Doesn't detract from the Pelli at all in my op. I like the plaza between the two towers. Presumably the two will do some design coordination since the plaza appears to be shared. Does the building have financing yet?
For the umpteenth time, I will be in bliss if some developer FINALLY builds a nice tall neo Art Deco (or even gothic revival) somewhere in downtown before this cycle ends, perhaps on Broadway where it would fit in. A 50 story Eastern Columbia or Richfield-like building. What L.A. might have had decades ago without the 150' height limit. Paging all developers....
Great to read the Grand Avenue project will finally start pouring concrete for the foundation June 28 (see project page). Should actually see some floors rising in a few months. What is the time estimate for completion of the project? Any updates on the Onni tower project at Times Mirror Square? Photo/verbal updates of DTLA projects appreciated! Born & raised in LA area, but now live 100+ miles away & don't get up there as much as I used to but am still an Angelino at heart.
