Honeywell is in for a surprise

The closer this gets to completion, the more ridiculous that 14 story parking deck looks. Honeywell as a standalone has decent proportions - but it looks stunty next to the parking deck. I wish they could have placed the parking deck a bit further north - that way skinnier buildings could have  wrapped/hidden the deck on both the 277 side and Stonewall side.

In all honesty, it should have been wrapped by Apartments. That would not have been that hard.

from Southend this morning.

I had a really vivid dream once that instead of moving across the way, the Panthers decided to develop the land surrounding the seating bowl with multi-use high-rises.  The floors of the buildings had terraces and windows overlooking the field directly below, surrounding the whole stadium.  The lowest levels integrated retail with the stadium concourses, while the upper floors looking down on the seating area were a variety of hotel rooms, mega-luxury suites, apartments and condos that had open-air access to the action in the stadium.  The majority of the middle of each separate building was office space with windows that didn't open, and the top floors were penthouse apartments, bars and nightclubs.  There was a light rail station integrated at the rear, but there was plenty of parking across the street where the curved deck is, because the Legacy Union decks started a new "war" for height and they added 20 floors of parking. 

EDIT- I forgot to mention the stadium was open air, but there was a "floating green roof" that suspended over the field and some but not all of the seating area of the stadium- it was basically a suspended green space park on top, connected to the buildings by walkways connecting to each of the buildings...but not at the tops of the buildings- more in the middle.  I could definitely see the field below from the park as I looked over the edge.  I remember thinking it was really cool.

Then I woke up.

If this isn’t the original design for the roof, then I’m not sure what is going on here. It’s definetely not the newest flat roofed rendering. It’s not a v either, from several angles it almost looks rounded downward towards the center. If that’s the case, the building will turn out better than both renderings in my opinion.
