I know, strange seeing me post, but I do come with pictures!

Here is the addition on the Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt. (I can’t bring  myself use the full name)

These are atop the JW Marriott, a nice little addition to the top. Could this be the crown we’ve been waiting for??

TBT: Looking NW from (then) Shelby Street Bridge at L&C Tower,  4th & Church (then called SunTrust Tower, which had just been completed in '68), and Snodgrass Tower in distance, still U.C. 1969.

So happy to see all the excellent photographers on the board now with all of the posting. Just a few short years ago, there were only a handful of us holding out for the current growth boom.

 

Thanks to all.

Amazing how that works... build one tall one that sticks out like a sore thumb and in a few decades its completely obscured tall buildings.... Could this work for a Nashville supertall as well?

Coming into town from the west on I-40 and turning onto 440 Parkway presents the best view of the skyline anywhere. You get this entire grand sweep from a ground level perspective. Yesterday at 4:30 the sun was low and highlighting all the buildings and producing bright reflections off the JW Marriott and others. I wish I could get a high-def picture of the skyline from one of those 'Malibu Homes' on the hill.

You can get a great shot at Trevor & 33rd right off of Charlotte Pike.  There's even a parking lot to the building overlooking 440.  However...there are some power lines that partially obstruct the view...which is unfortunate.

Incredible shot. And just imagine what this view of Midtown will look like in just a few years time. Those lots are really starting to fill in.

LOVE IT!!! Hazy distant photos are sometimes better than downtown photos.

I’ve never really noticed the side with the recessed windows. I guess I’ve always thought (in my minds eye) the whole building had the flush windows like on the right side of this picture. I wonder what made them do it differently. 

Its funny the things you don’t notice in a city until something gives you a reason to look.

Construction workers look on as de-construction workers make some room in downtown.

What those ladies and gentlemen were watching was painfully obvious yesterday.
