Is it confirmed the height is 900 feet. Also has construction restarted? ---

There hasn’t been much in articles for this building. A lot of it has been through LinkedIn posts and I don’t think construction ever stopped. The site is large enough that they’ve been completing it in phases. ![IMG_5542](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/3/d/3dd8c9b739c32706c6210392175f86da22a0a74f.jpeg) ![IMG_5541](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/4/b/4b2989dd415d91d36789ced416ad28191e1a7c2c.jpeg) ![IMG_5545](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/7/2/72810cb973897cf8d9227d861015a040df8bee0a.jpeg) ![IMG_5543](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/b/9/b9382bbfe8e3da41a411805fffb9b88ad2a32495.jpeg) ---

Indeed, but that post has some outdated info. I believe the store was expanded to 96K while the post mentions the building would be 29 stories when we think it will be closer to 50. I still don’t understand how we haven’t heard more about the air rights purchases which would’ve been required to make that happen. ---

Worry not, it will only showcase their high-end, well made stuff. ---
