I always wonder why they use so much glass in these Florida buildings. Hope its hurricane proof!

Solaire is 31 or so stories and 335'. It was scaled back from the original design, go figure.

The two office towers actually were increased in height, compared to the original plan. Maybe a tradeoff.

Man, that's right up against the Regions tower...Can't be more than 25-30ft apart, by the look of it.

Great pics. The first aerial really shows how large this project is.

PTP's major tenants will be Premiere America Trade, and Merchantile Bank (who will move from across Orange (I think)).

Solaire is topped off, as are the other two towers.

Here's a couple of shots from Solaire looking west from the 20th floor. 55W is U/C in between the North & South towers; Lattitudes is seen at the base of 55W in both shots:
