Do you mean The Joseph?

According to the update from the other day, that will break ground as soon as construction for this and the Marriott are done.

All of these midrise hotels with the fins on top remind me of a bunch of teenagers who have the same hairstyle because they're following the trends.

Maybe fins isn't the right terminology.  Whatever you'd call the little doohickey on top.  haha

Its called "no longer a box"; AKA their reaction to this board's box-haters. Instead, it's "a flat box on top of another box" which is the next level of the artform known among the architectural community as "box-pressionism".
