BDP, I don't know why you say that. Anyhow, to the people saying 37 stories. Yes we know that, that is the minimum Devon has said it would be on the record. Keep in mind their is no real investigative journalism in this town, and even if there was, they wouldn't know more than Devon has publicly disclosed already. They are just reading the press release on the "news". Anyhow, I guess we'll know exacts here in a few minutes.

Look how tall the box has to be to hide it, compared to Chase on the right.

Could be for dramatic effect though, or so people walking by won't see over the top of it, BUT I hope I'm wrong and it is crazy tall.

BDP, I don't know why you say that.
I was just kidding. Duplicate thread mainly to pimp a blog. You usually call posters out on these things.

Color rendering up on Steve's blog. From that perspective, it looks twice as tall as Chase. Not sure exact floors yet.

Edit: Pete beat me to the punch.

Amazing structure. Love it!!! Can't wait to see more details.

How exactly do you call that a box? The Chase building is a box...
