IN PROGRESS: WaterPlace | Intercontinental

I thought tower one was topped off, but more steel went higher today. They are taller than I thought they'd be.

I walked by yesterday or the day before on the way to work and not much or anymore facade went up. I'm actually wondering why they even put any up if they weren't ready to go.

The topping off ceremony was supposed to be at 10:45am today. I got an invite but couldnt attend... did anyone get a chance to go?

No, but I was looking at them as I walked to lunch and thought, "damn they're tall!" Not that I mind that at all.

I checked earlier on the westin cam and the flag was up, but I didn't see the Xmas tree. Maybe they just wrote happy holidays at the top.

was this toppin off for both buildings or just the short one?

[Gusterfell]

The short one only. The taller one still has a few more floors to go

[dgreco]

Really? Wow, this is going to be taller than I thought.

[MikeR]

Is the highest girder painted white with a Christman tree attached to it? There should be a flag attached to the beam, too.

Hi everyone,

Here's a look at the Waterplace from high up in RIH.

Check out how Waterplace and Westin II fill out the skyline from the Southern vantage point!

Also check out how being in the basin makes them appear so much shorter than they are from here too...

Indeed, everynight when I walk over the Washington Street Bridge (over the river) I remark to myself how giant they look (not that I mind that at all).

i took a drive through downtown on saturday and im very happy to say the towers are prominent from a number of locations, especially kennedy plaza

btw- i really like the materials and the color they are using for the bases of the bldgs so far. i think it will fit in nicely

They been placing the facade material on the garage front in what will be the building's courtyard.

i like how these towers can be seen from the thurbers ave curb..it would be nice if they were a few floors high, however it does sort of block the state house

They rise nicely above College Hill as seen coming down 195 from East Providence.

[Garris]

it's a city, buildings are going to be blocked. i wish they were like 2-3 floors taller.
