Best new office tower in recent memory. Thanks for the pics everyone.
Im curious, does anyone know if the roof of this building will be completely enclosed? Or will it have a large, noticeable opening for window washing equipment? (like L-Tower)
As for the roof being enclosed, look at my 6 & 8 photo and you will see various size plates at various location to have steel beams or tubes welded to them as a brace system from my point of view. If you look at the columns, you will see similar plates for steel members framing into them like the top tube member.
Its possible there maybe some trusses to deal with the clear span from side to side.
This is one building that has made my top 25 list and have yet to come up with a top 10.
A couple from today; not great quality because cellphone and into the light, but haven't seen as many from the east lately and still gives a decent look at the framing and overall context from this perspective.
