Progress seems to be going much slower now on the first 2 towers. Barely any changes in the past month (maybe 1 floor of windows?)

I just got back from vacation and it was nice to see this morning that this one is officially topped out! Hopefully see some action on the Marriott soon!

It's wild seeing a Brutalist-Nouveau tower, with wild and wacky zany patterns to try to mask it's banality, built within a year of, and directly adjacent to something so original and modern.

I honestly like the contrast between both towers. Yes, we may all agree that Relevé is the better-looking one out of both, but the framing of Relevé with a boxy brick and precast tower instead of another copy or similar glass tower really makes it shine that much more

Is it me, or do I see an angle to the roof line?

I see that too.

I think it’s an illusion due to that elevation of the building being curved (left side is slightly closer vs the right side so the top left appears to be higher)

Based on a shot I took yesterday, you may be right.

It is an illusion for sure.
