It looks like they will probably build on top of this loading dock building attached to the garage. I assume they will also remove that exterior fire escape and replace it with some emergency staircase with a door accessing the rooftop next to The Jones.earthling wrote:This rendering implies it would also go over or close to the Consentino's garage. None of the renderings seem proportionally consistent to each other or relative to surroundings.

While it is a small footprint, it is about the same size as the footprint the Midland Tower is on.

I did an experiment using Microsoft Paint to see if 909 Walnut tower would fit at 13th and Walnut. The base wouldn't, but the upper tower shaft portion would fit on that site, and it's one of the tallest buildings downtown.
