I have that view. I have two spots in Elmwood waiting, for what, I do not know.

Return to that location in mid-October with the trees aflame and you will then truly have a shot to die for; the sense of nostalgia, leaves brushing across your shoes as you walk, shadows lengthening, the silence of the... Well others have said it much better than I.

Drive bys today of Legacy including some from S Mint side.

Welp, here is Panther Tower.  Only two building materials but the black and blue turned out nice. With a humble suggestion to how it can be lit up during night games

Mannnnnnn that absolutely towers over the rest of uptown.

[SydneyCarton]

Not to be greedy, but seeing all of these photos really makes me hope for news about the new Duke tower soon.

No. Don't think so. Also, they're going to lose a day of work due to Labor Day. I think they have one more mechanical floor to go then the Pyramid will start.

I do believe the pyramid will start before the Bengals game on the 23rd.

You can see this from almost everywhere in the stadium.

None what so ever. From what I’ve been told January before the pyramid gets finished. There’s a lot to do before the pyramid gets started. 3 floors of mechanical and ornamentation before it even gets to the pyramid.

For those who aren't keeping up with the floor count, this is the floor they're currently on and about to finish up. You're right that there are 3 more mechanical floors, so the pyramid will not start until at least next month.

They should put a public atrium in the pyramid, tired of not being able to go high in any buildings if i dont work for BoA or Duke

You can’t go anywhere but your floor for BofA. I worked in the 16th floor of Corp. and sometimes I would have to go to the 17th floor and I had no access and it was annoying

Actually they are higher than this. There’s just a lot of spaces before the pyramid, somewhere in a previous page I have a profile shot with it filled out.

Pink is whats completed, whats left to go is in color.

Here it is. They've actually completed a floor since this was posted. All they have now is that blank facade part and then the ornamentation, then the pyramid will start.

Hmmmm..those 2 renderings don't match.  The full tower rendering shows an additional floor than the pink color close up.

I noticed that too. It's kind of confusing. Maybe the pink colored one is an older rendering?

[Crucial_Infra]

My interpretation is that they are nearly done with Floor 33. Floor 34 is a mechanical floor and then Floor 35 is really just the roof that the pyramid will rest on but will also serve as a bit of a mechanical floor as it will be covered by said pyramid.

And/but no matter where they are, they have slowed down considerably this past month having completed just two floors since Aug 1st which is way off their previous months average of a floor every 10-11 days.

This rendering does not match. It has less floors, than the newer rendering, above the setback. IS this possibly the original before they added height?

My rendering was pulled from the newest document.
