if you look closer at the rendering AddisonJM posted...it is in fact different than the model we are used to seeing. the differences are subtle...but definately more accurate with the changes made to phase one. for example, if you look closely at the phase one portion it has the little dome included where it was not included before...and i dont mean the dome right there in the front. additionally the white cladding treatment around the bottom seems to be accurate with the design language of phase one. i will admit the proportion of phase one looks a little off to be accurate...but maybe this is the new version?

6 stories if i remember correctly

hahaha...what the crap!

someone then please explain why they are refered to as the "three sisters" if Morgens is in fact named after this gentleman. is that a nickname that has just developed over the years or is cincinnatis on the wrong track? there also seems to be an enormous amount of speculation in your claims...who's to say anybody gave anything to have their names put on these buildings? even if they did it sure as heck is not a legitimate reason to impede progress. i think people are pretty well aware of the fact that if you contribute money and have a buliding named after you...there is a pretty good chance that eventually it will be torn down. but what do i know. im from cincinnati so that makes everything about me stupid.

nobody likes the bengal stipes i guess

well someone did a little photoshop work for the enquirer and i think the tan actually looks nice, there is still a nice contrast. i also thought i remember hearing that it actually was tan at one point. i like the green the best though.

awesome indeed. now if only neyer would pull through with their proposal in st. xavier park

i agree kendall...they leave a lot to be desired but overall i think its a positive

yeah, looks good

i worked for the firm who did the feasibility study on this project several years ago. it has always been uc's intention to reduce the number of rooms in the complex. from the start they wanted to either cut back to two towers or remove the top several floors of all three...i personally think the better option won out.

i dont care what anybody thinks...thats hot

well at least its not dead

thank you twnipper. it seems like we go in circles in some of these threads. i think we can all admit the design leaves something to be desired, but for goodness sakes its not a horrible thing.

^ so you dont like it eh?

haha

> I bet yout the engineers proposed the 2 span bridge, but the architects modified it without concern for the safety and future expansion Give me a break

i think the city should trade some developing rights and put this guy to work in the banks...with the proper controls of course

wow

lookin good

haha yeah. im pretty sure that buildings twin is at the corner of Cooper and Kenwood in blue ash. i wonder what they are waiting for on the rest of that steel.

unusual, you certainly have a valid point but temperatures have only been that cold for a few months now and from what i have been able to tell it seems those last few months have been the most productive. i find it hard to believe the 10 or so levels they have completed in one year is typical speed of concrete construction. in any event, it will be a nice change of pace to see a new floor added every couple days.

amazing how slow the concrete work was. has it been almost a year now?

I sure hope not. I thought they were supposed to make some type of announcement the end of last year.

true, but i think potential none the less

the carew had come up in another thread as obviously a pretty sweet place to live
