This tower is going up so fast--love the design of it. 

Giarratana's tower across the street will look great too. I imagine that one should see steel rising by summer? Will be nice to compliment each other. 

Then, when the 750 ft YMCA Tower is built, that whole district will go from lower rise somewhat dense, to high rise/skyscraper dense.

Great relative timing reminder.   https://www.giarratana.com/

Alcove is rising so fast we have to report daily on its progress.  Here is a view from the intersection of Church Street and Rosa Parks, as well as a shot from Nashville City Center looking west.

Wow-super fast !! 

Nashville is one of a very small handful of cities that has a skyline that changes every month, practically.

Austin is the other city. And projects here in NYC go up swiftly as well, along with LA, maybe San Fran too, Seattle.

Incredible to be alive right now  to watch  Nashville's evolution into a much larger city, happening real time.

This one is going to lap so many other buildings in construction around it, it's wild! Not to mention it's on a very small site surrounded by roads and the design is unconventional. I'm very impressed so far.

That first picture is so cool with the white, blue and red.

Seeing Amazon 2 behind it makes you wonder if this tower could catch up to Amazon 2.

Amazon 2 is just starting  glass on the 1st level, whereas this one is starting on the 8th. 

It appears the floor plates are smaller than on A2, so they may go up faster.

Glass installation up to 9th floor.

Just add construction elevator going up.

It hardley seems like any time at all that we were so excited on the renovations to the Gas Company building and complaining about the stucco wall with the new windows.   Wow.

I was at Ft. Leonard Wood in the spring of 1969.  Seemed like a vacation between basic at Ft. Dix and Infantry OCS at Benning.  Thank you for your service.

My dad was at Ft. Leonard Wood around 1961-62…then was called up sometime in that time period during Kennedy’s Berlin Wall crisis.

This tower is rising so fast--just unbelievable. At this pace, it should be topped out by what, June?

I imagine the sister tower across the street should start seeing steel rising up within the next month, too....

I hope the YMCA 750 footer goes up just as similarly quick.

Gotta keep this Ft. Leonard Wood thing going.  Here is a trash can I bought there 53 years ago.  Still works.  Can you tell it was a product of the sixties?
