Wow! That is awesome; it appears as if it is about 23 or 24 floors now.

Has there been any official word on what the cap and/or lighting scheme (if there is one) will be?

I am still hoping that there is the ability to change it from the original (boring) inset cap to something at least slightly more dramatic, and perhaps adding a little more height.

I really hope they incorporate some type of good lighting with the building. This has already been discussed, but the duke energy building in charlotte and the BOA plaza building in Dallas are good examples to follow.

 

I think we all want this to be a possibility. This is in such a prime spot downtown, right in the middle. If a crown was added, that would make it 600+ and become instantly one of the landmark buildings in our skyline

What are the odds of a small ornamental crown being added? I'd assume slim to none, but surely it's been done before.

Just something like my little photoshop from a few weeks ago would be cool.  Not exactly this...but something..

It really does look incomplete at the top...

You may also schedule an appointment to experience 505’s VR (“virtual reality”) platform in the 505 Marketing Center on the 29th floor of Fifth Third Center.

 

We are pleased with the progress of construction. Floor 23 was poured last week and, with a new floor being poured every four business days, we are on path to complete 505’s concrete structure by June 2017. Initial occupancy of the lower floor residences will begin October 2017, with all floors available January 2018.

 

Giarratana Management, LLC is pleased to have entered into a joint venture with Lincoln Property Company – the 2nd largest U.S. property manager – for leasing and management of 505.

Isn't this what we expected though?

Not a bad rendering 

[MLBrumby]

I like that. Is that an official rendering, or one with a suggested top?  I always thought that a simple stepped in-out style ridge across the top would look much better than the images I've seen thus far.  The smooth top just looks unfinished to me.

This is official rendering from the website 

[titanhog]

If the top has LED lighting, it will look pretty cool at night.

[VSRJ]

Even just a slightly recessed rim at the top would do wonders. But alas, it's a 500+ foot tower. I'm grateful for that.

[troyboytn]

While I want to, I just can't seem to bring myself to like this tower. I would definitely like it better in a different location. All I can truly see here is an uninspired building which will ultimately block the view of what ,IMO, is Nashville's most stunning tower... Fifth Third (the former Third National Tower) which has always been my favorite.

Yeah I don't really think this is anybody's favorite. I mean it's cool that it's 500+ but it feels like the people who designed this just drew a slender rectangle and called it a day.

 

Atleast we have the JW marriot coming up...

Yes.  If we could drop a 550' JW Marriott in the space taken by 505, that would be better.

[bhibbs]

do we know how this will impact the skyline say if you were on the east side of the river at the stadium looking towards downtown?

I would take the skyhouse top over 505

Atlanta has always have crown top buildings

^^Really loving the glass on 505, Bridgestone and Thompson Hotel.

[markhollin]

Not counting the center core, I believe it is up to the 25th floor now. 20 more to go, plus crown.  

 

[dmillsphoto]

I think ^ this may be the best angle to show off the height.
