Correct. Although it should in theory start telescoping down as low zone elevators drop off, and then office elevators drop off. I'd expect on floor toilet rooms to be replaced with amenity spaces as well.

The outdoor ones I'm pretty sure. The indoor ones I'm pretty sure they ended up fake or the typical foam wall VE approach. They were originally real with a watering system. Outdoor plants on LEED projects, especially Gold and Platinum levels projects are going to have native plantings. They...

1000% disagree on principal. That is a stupid statement and way of thinking. People break the law all the time. Travel in the wrong direction on the highway, and all kinds of other stuff. Do they need reverse spike strips at highway on ramps. Do you also support the burglar in Liar Liar who...

Does it though? Multiple occurrences of a taller building being drawn shorter than a building it is labeled as taller than. Just matched floor counts. Maybe to make the resi look taller in sections? Instead of misleading folks, why not just actually build more resi, and they will be taller than...

The view from the top.

Every core shell lab building is a lab/office building. It's all a matter of the split. Typically these days it's back to 60/40 from a brief time when it was 50/50. With the difficulty of getting people back into the office, they may start venturing closer to 70/30. The office component is...

The outer bays for the labs often end up being 44'. Thicker steel can be used to limit columns to keep the floor plate wide open. Those 5' deep girders at the garage roof supporting the building above are pretty dang big tho. Helped me get my drainage piping across the drive aisles tho up in...

Yes. Gas stoves. Those that have always been a staple of "luxury" condos and apartments. Where people would squeal if anyone suggested electric stoves. While mine is propane... Long live gas stoves. Also, short live knee jerk reactionism.

Shortened and became one uniform height instead of the low rise and high rise portions. Lowered for... yeah let's go with your reason...

It's 133' to the top of the highest occupied floor... PH1 is at 142'-6" with grade being 9'-6". Tippy top is approx. 168' Not sure why it's building 1. It's always been building 2 on the docs. But, whatever. It got built first, so it's building 1. Oddly enough, the leaders are actually pointing...

Funny to have my rant from 13 years ago 'fact checked'. I mean, it would have been third tallest for a minute had they built it back then.

We're seeing this second mechanical "penthouse" happening more often. It's really the roof with a tall screen around it to hide the roof top equipment. A large open well with generators, cooling towers, and exhaust fans. Extending the curtainwall all the way up like this is more expensive...

They will look a little awkward as the floors do not line up based on office vs. lab floor to flor differential. I believe the original plan had 3 bridges, so losing one helps. Sanofi will have a large kitchen/cafeteria on the upper level connection, so that one serves a major purpose to them...

Quality looking glass. Looks like it would make a great podium if there was only a setback tower rising out of this.
