Thanks for the pics Si7i!

For those with Instagram accounts, try searching #downtownnorfolk every once in a while. I've seen some pics of the construction on there. I would post them here if it were easier to do it.

This document is a year old, but has even more detailed renderings that fall in line with the ones posted above. Hopefully they haven't changed since then... http://issuu.com/trentmatthias/docs/harbors_edge_-_professional_work_20

Thanks for the pics, Norva. Just a small note, but Hilton has added the hotel to their website. It includes renderings we've already seen, but also a night-time one. http://www3.hilton.com/en/hotels/virginia/hilton-norfolk-the-main-ORFWAHH/index.html

That's great news. Swarovski stores are fantastic.

The rendering of Town Center in 5 years looks a little....(forgive my bluntness)...silly. Sure, the core of buildings look nice, but look right outside the buildings -- all parking lots and suburban residential areas, and the whole thing looks extremely artificial. Every downtown has to start somewhere, and Town Center is heading in the right direction, but it will take decades to achieve Downtown Norfolk's CURRENT size, culture, opportunities, and character. Just my opinion.

What does "connect through" BWI mean? Do you have to deplane and reboard? If so, I don't see what the big deal is. They aren't non-stop flights.

Great shots Caveman, especially the first one. Lots of layers to the picture.

Great last shot there, Tel. The Residence Inn is really coming along.

^^ Nice shot, URBbum. I love ground-level shots like that.

Awesome news. They should do great at MacArthur.

Will Waterside meet the wrecking ball?

ODU is really making strides at becoming a first class university, it seems. If ODU becomes more acclaimed, Norfolk becomes more acclaimed.

Fantastic.
