Has this building topped out yet? any updates?

^^ I'm not sure what to say. On Monday, I saw that building from downtown and didn't realise any significant progress. Hope that they haven't stopped.

^^ It seems it is topping out? There is certainly some progress since the previous pic.

^^ Yes, the progress is obvious.

^^great photo, i really hope that entire road gets lined with high-rises

^^Well.18 Floors is not really a highrise :D but i gotta admit it looks nice,Especially the Colour

well relatively it is :S , compared to the flat ones behind it, but what i mean is having the road lined with nice buildings tall enough to cover the mess behind! :P

:cheers:

I wonder when they will add the climbing vines to the balconies, I dont think the building really looks complete without them

they should take those plants off.

Wow... Talk about architect FAIL!
They should just remove the whole metal poles and leave the white cladding and the glass part... I wonder how the tenants reacted! They must be pissed off! You invest in an appartement in this and a year later it i already rusted and those plants are so darn UGLY!

I dont even know why they put plants on such a modern building. It looks really tacky IMO.

I liked!

It is supposed to be eco friendly
