How late at night were you doing this?  I'm out there at 10 picking up scooters so you have at least some somewhat normal people out there.

Not according to Eric Clapton.

Or him and J.J. Cale anyway...

This is going to fill quite a few gaps in our skyline from quite a few angles. This is a great project.

Our skyline? Does this mean Connecticut has decided to annex Orlando?

I'm glad the tower isn't going all the way to the back of the pedestal... 

I think that would have been way too much wall.

Well no sh**, who wants train brakes and bus brakes?

Or, wait, is that sarcasm?     Choo, choo!?

I don't know, but whatever the noise level might be, it had nothing to do with what I was saying.

I was speaking from a purely visual POV.

Besides, I doubt the noise level from trains and buses would be loud enough to really bother all but the most noise-sensitive people. 

And above ten floors with the windows shut and the TV on I doubt you could hear it at all.

This thing is getting taller and taller every week. Moving way faster than I anticipated!

Having lived at 55 West facing the train tracks on the 25th floor, I can tell you that sound VERY MUCH travels up.

I agree, that it isn't bothersome.  But even that high, I'd have to pause tv or hit the 10 second rewind button when the whistle was directly below my apartment because you couldn't hear what they were saying over it.

I believe I read recently that Orlando is going to have the trains run quiet later at night downtown like WP has done previously.

Yeah, I know they got funding for the 4 arm railway arms, as opposed to the 2, but last I heard about that was pre-COVID.

From last week

Just took this on Orange at Robinson

[uncreativeusername]

Stayed at the new Hilton Garden Inn Monday night passing through town for the holidays. Sun and dirty windows were an impediment, but cool new vantage point nonetheless.  

As long as Society is along Livingston, it is surprisingly thin facing Orange. Should emphasize the height from this view:

the great thing about this is that the shorter of the two towers is supposed to be 17 stories.  This tower is currently at 11 or 12 depending how they count the levels which means the bulk that it currently shows- add 6 more floors to it and that's the shorter tower.

Current renderings vs. my best attempt to get the same angles this morning.

I'm confused. If these are the same angles, how does the taller tower (the only one u/c so far) suddenly become the shorter tower? I'm also seeing less floors in the pedestal, which makes me wonder what they've done to the rest of the building.

The bottom comparison is confusing me.

I think those renderings are still from the 3 tower version. But even from newer renderings, there is a floor missing in the pedestal.
