Is 350 becoming the chicago height? Don't really like the shape - it's too much... well shape...

If only Trump had spared all his money into one trumptower

Yeah, parking is up to the 12th. Then there are four more floors for things related to the hotel, and then the first setback, which should be interesting to see.

It looks like the Don will end up having a hotel brand similar to The Hilton. Lets hope he doesn't end up with a hoe of a grandaughter like Paris. Great looking building.

LOL I know thats it's only been a few days and probly not too much work was done. But, I just think that this building and Chicago are amazing and I would love to see more pictures of a truly amazing Skyscraper in a equaly amazing City. Perhaps some one can get some interior shots of the building? I'm curious to see the progress of the inside.

Hi -
I've been reading these forums for awhile, but this is my first time posting. Here are some construction pics of the tower from July 21st.



Quick question - Is that the top level of the parking garage? When does the first setback occur? Thanks in advance.
