Re: Eleven - 1111 West River Parkway - 41 stories / 550'
I didn't snap a pic (was running) but the bay windows on this project look very nice.

Ryan Companies Instagram stories are saying the tower cranes are topped out now at 624' 6.5" and 590' 3.5". They say they are the tallest cranes the City has seen since 1992

This thing has to be close to topped off, right?
Re: Eleven - 1111 West River Parkway - 41 stories / 550'
I biked by a couple weeks ago, and the floor numbers painted on the doors for the construction elevator went up to 38, and there were a few floors poured above it. Gotta be close.

I guessing since this is technically in downtown that means the title of tallest building outside of Downtown Minneapolis still belongs to Cedar-Riverside?

Lights are turned on. The top has a really nice soft warm glow to it. I kind of like it since it's not trying to draw attention away from the core night skyline. Take a look tonight!

I hope they light more of the tower, just the very top is kind of weird to me. The Carlyle is lit much nicer.Lights are turned on. The top has a really nice soft warm glow to it. I kind of like it since it's not trying to draw attention away from the core night skyline. Take a look tonight!
Re: Eleven - 1111 West River Parkway - 41 stories / 550'
I feel similarly, I was thinking the lighting would cascade down the set backs somewhat like the WF tower. Possible that there is more to come I guess too.I hope they light more of the tower, just the very top is kind of weird to me. The Carlyle is lit much nicer.Lights are turned on.

I never even considered that they dont plan to add more lighting, it would be pretty silly if they dont!

I think it's good that it's top is NOT bright. This is close to the river and further outside of downtown core.

I wish the upper level set backs were better illuminated. Would better show off the architecture at night.

I agree, I thought they would at least have that much of it illuminated.I wish the upper level set backs were better illuminated. Would better show off the architecture at night.

I'm guessing that the structural lighting will stay limited to the crown. With the prices folks have to pay to live here, it would be pretty annoying to step out onto your open air patio and have high power flood lights glaring at you from farther down the building. I was wondering if the big fake windows in the crown would get some lighting from behind, but I guess that would be unlikely at this point.
Re: Eleven - 1111 West River Parkway - 41 stories / 550'
Photoshop the cranes out and this would make a nice post apocalyptic photo. I thought I'd like this building as much as the Carlyle but I don't.This thing has to be close to topped off, right?
