Would you guys rather us go back and implode the building and you can have your surface parking back? I mean, that way you wouldn't have to worry about the blue neon stripe.

I wouldn't be adverse to seeing blue neon on some of the other older buildings.

Maybe a different color for the Copper Whopper, & around the roofline, rather than vertical. I'm thinking red.

Wachovia @ Central & Orange would look cool w/blue neon running vertically along it's corners & around the top.

I see nothing wrong with criticism--this is a forum, afterall.

The Wachovia building on N. Magnolia at Park Lake Ave. and the Day Building at Lake Eola both had neon at one point. It looked pretty cool on Wachovia (it was still First Union then, if I remember correctly), and looked hideously cheap on Day.

Amen to that.

That blue streak down the side of dyntech looks like a cheep ripoff of the VUE lights on the North side very disappointed.

[bulldogger]

Hope not. For godsake why must the Vue lighting have such a cheez-ball pattern! Is something wrong with a solid color, maybe alternating with "slow" gradient changes. The current pattern makes it look like some cheesy Vegas, no wait, Reno casino. When I'm with people from out of town, they think the building is some hotel or somewhere to go see the Blue-Man group!

IMHO, I think the Vue lighting is passable. the crest has excellent lighting with the while neon and spotlights... you can see it for miles. I view the north face as a plus; not sold on the color schemes though, but, it does draw attention to the bldg. as though it matters or something.

Buckhoist is gone.

This building has so many details, I find something new everyday that only makes me like it more and more. They have potted plants all along the South side, on the sidewalk and in baskets hanging from the side. I can't wait till this building is done, it will be impeccable.

I agree but the spire still needs to be taller alot taller!

What's with that one window on the left side?

All the glass is installed and the crown is now lit. I'll have pics later.

The lighting scheme on the west side of the building will rest more on the shoulders of the neon stripe as well as backlighting the upper mechanical floors. If you look carefully we made them frosted glass for a reason

[RedStar25]

Anyone notice the neon blue reflecting in the copper wopper?

That parking deck lighting is out of control. Are they going to wrap some art around the parking deck for a back lit effect as well?

The artwork is starting to go up and the fence is gone. This thing is very close to done.

[Go Gators]

Good looking building.
