One Million square feet of office space and 588 feet high.
For reference, this would be the tallest building in the state outside of Charlotte including the Greensboro project 561. 5th Tallest in Charlotte. Retail component will be yuge. This building is set in the middle back of the property
After this latest round of development, to use Raleigh as a reference since they are the 2nd largest city, the 2nd tallest there would be the 14th (probably 15th depending on tryon place final official height) Tallest in Charlotte
The building could be increased in height. It's supposedly like 60% leased. So this round, we will have gotten 4 major office buildings uptown with maybe a 5th. So far mostly financial firms and banks Confirmed and rumored bank expansions (US Bank, Bank of America). Also Bank of America supposedly is going to be building a large building uptown.
On another exciting note, the ambitious transit plan is to have the red line, silver line and gold line complete by 2030. Supposedly Iredell county is cooperating on the red line

Either I read the Observer wrong or they edited their original story. Either way, 588 ft is what I've read just now. This thing will look HUGE from I-277 north bound.
The plans and rendering filed this week show a 588-foot tall, 30-story office building, topped with a glass-and-steel pyramid. For comparison, the Duke Energy Center across the street totals 48 floors and 786 feet in height.
