Great pics Uptown. Ok, just to clarify some things. Is Platinum 1 also called Platinum on the bay? I have that as 51 floors and 732 feet. Are they the same project? Also I have no numbers for Onyx 1. Its listed in our bible (city planning page) but gives no numbers for floors and height. How tall is it going to be? Thanks guys.
