On that pic with Crystal Blu the height of the floors are noticable in comparison to Uptown.

No i mean 9ft. ceiling heights compared to i think 8ft. for Uptown.
Oh... I wasn't referring to your previous post.. I was just saying in terms of the building height..

Hardly the One St. Thomas-quality precast we were hoping for. Thanks for all the pics, drum118.
Just noticed the first setbacks.

Pemberton group happened. What did you all expect? It's always been a boring tower covered in precast. Enjoy it while it looks new because this thing is going to look terrible in 10 years.

I don't understand all the hate. It's good to have a different-looking building once in a while, and it hardly seems fair to judge this before all the characteristic elements of the design are built. The precast ain't perfect, but at least it looks like it will hold up to the weather well. It's just about the same colour brown that older buildings of the same construction look like.

Don't get me wrong but i love this building!
I'm just saying the white colour may not last... that's all..
Uptown has great height and design... looks amazing on the skyline!
I ain't a hater

I wish it had a bit of colour too. Those deceptive renderings are just wrong and should be labeled false advertising. (and forbidden)
