January 22, 201015 yr I saw QCS in person yesterday and I must say it looks better than in the renderings.
January 22, 201015 yr Does anyone know what will be inside the tiara? A big room or will it be segmented or will it be closed off? I envision a huge glass domed room but I have no idea.

January 29, 201015 yr Will Great American Tower really be Cincinnati’s tallest building? By Jon Newberry, Cincinnati Business Courier | January 29, 2010 Workers installed the final steel beam on the Great American Tower a few weeks ago. If any of the workers there look to the west at the Carew Tower, they’ll have to look up to spot Wilborn. The new building will be taller than the Carew Tower only by the grace of its “tiara” crown that’s not yet in place. There has been a lively discussion among skyscraper aficionados on the Internet about which building is really the tallest and highest. At 665 feet, the height of Queen City Square’s crown will easily surpass the Carew Tower, which is 91 feet shorter. Some wags have suggested that the Carew Tower’s flagpole ought to be included, contending it serves as much useful purpose as Queen City Square’s tiara. It’s not clear if that alone would allow it to retain its “tallest” status, however. It has also been noted that the Carew Tower is built on higher ground at Fifth and Vine – about 30 feet higher than Third and Sycamore. So even though it might not be the tallest, it could still be the highest – flagpole included. Read full article here: http://cincinnati.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/stories/2010/02/01/story11.html

January 29, 201015 yr I LOVE the fact that they 1) were talking about UO conversations, and 2) used the term "wags" in the article.
January 29, 201015 yr Well, they ain't lyin! :D "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
January 29, 201015 yr Some wags have suggested... LOL. What's a wag? http://lmgtfy.com/?q=What%27s+a+wag%3F&l=1
February 4, 201015 yr Apparently there is no security at all on that building site: http://www.nopromiseofsafety.com/?p=843 flagpole, webcam.
February 4, 201015 yr There isn't. It was amusing to watch them from the roof of the Herald Building and calling them up. "Hey what's up?" "Not much, just hanging around."
February 4, 201015 yr Apparently there is no security at all on that building site: http://www.nopromiseofsafety.com/?p=843 flagpole, webcam. Shhhh.
February 4, 201015 yr Apparently there is no security at all on that building site: http://www.nopromiseofsafety.com/?p=843 flagpole, webcam. These fools should be arrested. It's all fun until one of them falls, or gets injured, and then our city taxpayer dollars have to go towards emergency medical care/ clean up of their stupid asses. I feel the same way about urban exploration somewhat, but this is obviously much worse.
February 4, 201015 yr I feel that if people want to take risks for the sake of photography or thrill, they can do so on their own initiative. While I do abandonment photography, I don't pursue it under the guise of a thrill -- but to each his own, I suppose. What's interesting about this specific case is that one of the individuals involved has a minor tiff with the law. So it is with some question that the photographer flaunts the law on this. It's one thing to climb up, it's another to publish photos with that added risk. Even under normal circumstances, you can be arrested for trespassing, along with other charges, because the photographs all but incriminate you. Amended under consideration of the user.

February 5, 201015 yr I liked the pics but I wouldn't do it. Not because I'm afraid of getting caught or hurt but mainly just because I would rather be doing something else. Nonetheless, that was pretty gutsy IMO.
February 5, 201015 yr Welcome to the forum - although the photos are indeed impressive (especially the last one), in no way, shape or form do the owners and operators of UrbanOhio approve or encourage trespassing or violating the law for photography purposes. We love great photos but the safety of our forumers comes first. If we (the owners and operators of UrbanOhio) are contacted by any representatives of Queen City Square, Great American, the construction company, developers, or law enforcement, our only choice is full cooperation and if need be, turning over all information (ISPs, etc.) requested. clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
February 5, 201015 yr that's the litigious times in which we live. impressive pics though Cute, but it won't be some ambulance chasing attorney knocking on the door. It will be the sheriff.
