The VUE

[JRS1]

speaking of Vue ala its neighbor, the Eola Park Centre or Fifth THird Bank, I gotta tell you, when that sign is lit up, it adds so much when heading north on Rosalind. Its as though it "validates" the bldg.

^ take that picture and add some A/C units on top of the Metropolitan roof and the sweet hummmm they create. ahhhh, paradise.

those aren't actually functional..lol. The association has to take care of other things before they have them removed. The building is connected to the chilled water system.

That's cool to know. I thought OUC was only doing that with the new buildings going up.

What building is this a drawing of?

It's a figment of your imagination which coincidentally materialized in the Vue thread...

It's really beginning to assert itself on the skyline now.

[bic]

I agree. Sometimes it's easy to forget that this is going to be the 2nd tallest building in Orlando.

Its starting to look like a monster when driving west on Robinson starting near Bumby

driving along i-4 at night last night, there seemed to be a little yellow light in ever room of the vue -- lit up like crazy and very good lookin!

[JRS1]

what color is the Vue's frame going to be? white?

By the looks of the rendering on this page, I would say either white or just off.

[bic]

The bottom floors are already painted white.

Another good view of the Vue is driving in towards downtown north on Orange Ave. You can see it at a pretty good distance now.

How bout some nite photos from a distance

How bout some nite photos from a distance

I think the only revealing night photo would be from I-4 westbound near Colonial looking southeast, or, maybe from the Lynx bldg.??--- unless you take a snapshot from Lake Eola ala Central, that is.

I think a nice shot would be from atop I-4 at Robinson. Since the shutter would be open for an extended period to take in the light, you could time it so that the lights were green on Robinson and the tail lights from the cars would create the red lines in motion.

I'm not sure I would want to get up on I-4 at night with a tripod, though. Don't want to be in the headlines that bad. I can just see it... Photographer Clipped on I4 - Still Searching For Missing Head

[JRS1]

yeah... that would suck.

I just realized something today. 5th3rd is shorter than Capital Plaza. what this means is that Vue will be considerably taller than 5th3rd. I realized this when heading south on I-4 around Princeton/Ivanhoe, trying to guage just how tall Vue's silhouette [sic] will be from that angle.

If I'm not mistaken I think I saw this thing poking out all the way from the Conroy road bridge.

I can see it when I'm heading into downtown from the west. I'm sure it looks even more impressive when you're coming from the east on 408.

The south crane got jacked up a notch. Must have been done this morning.
