Ontario tower is about a third done now.
What i'm most curious about is how the top will come together, will be a nice change from seing flat tops being completed instead.

Wow man. Watching skyscrapers go up bit by bit and seeing the shape of it all take place after a while is amazing.

The hotel building is taking shape now, and really has made a denser impact on the area now. Maybe a bit too much. The tower hasn't really moved on much in th epast few weeks though.

Thanks Darjole...I hate to take advantage of a sea leaving little creature (actually big creature, god help him) but here is a very poor ariel view from Skycopter re Whale. You can just about get an idea of impact of Ontario Tower if you compare to Darjole images

Wel, using loads of means compiles a great little bank of data showing how much effect these things have on the area....

Answering its critics

Although not 'groundbreaking' the cladding on this tower is looking very neat, hopefully the worries people had about it have been put to rest now.
