You need to SERIOUSLY learn to face facts and accept that you're NOT always right about things, Cincy-Rise. You tried your DAMNDEST to make me look like I didn't know what the hell I was talking about regarding West Chester, and now when I point out VERIFIABLE FACTS to you, you crawl back into some dream state in an attempt to STILL prove you are right somehow.
And people tell me I'M the one that needs help...??

Aquila ... I get DM's all of the time from other members regarding your posts.
This is simple ... we already have QCS Phase I finished and we know where it stands in regards to height. If we use that, then we know where to place them on Phase II.

From the Enquirer:

Since this summer, Trauth and the companies he represents have been lobbying council to reject amendments to the Banks plans that allow the project to be twice as big as originally envisioned. The amendments doubled the density of the riverfront development to 2.8 million square feet and doubled maximum building heights to 30 stories.

Can you find anything that states otherwise? |

Not to interupt what this thread has turned into while I was gone...
but you are very incorrect. Cleveland will have the 1st, 2nd and 4th tallest buildings in Ohio. Actually we might still have the 3rd also instead of 4th, BP is 658 ft tall, the new building in Cincinnati might be 660, which would put it 2 whole feet ahead, maybe. Also Carew Tower is 574 ft tall, nowhere remotely close to 659. Add to that, Rhodes in Columbus is much taller than Carew (629 ft). Cincinnati might have the 3rd and 6th.
Where in the world do you get your "facts" from? |

That is weird ... they report heights with flag poles on emporis.com with other buildings, but they don't with the Carew? It's just blank where it would normally go.

There is no way that the "flag pole" on top of the Carew Tower is nearly 100 ft tall. And most importantly, even if it somehow was, that wouldnt be counted in the actual height. Its not even part of the actual structure. |

it's as much a part of the structure as the top of terminal tower.

cincy-rise, i've always been confused by the rendering vs. the height. they say 660, but if you judge various renderings, it looks like 3.5 303 broadways, which would be 700 feet. that rendering you showed made me go hmmm...
