A couple of blocks away from where I work downtown, they are completing a 60 story residential high-rise, making it the tallest building in the state. It will house 630 unit. Condos, Penthouses, apartments, etc. Across the street they are upgrading some buildings and I enjoy watching the Cranes from our roof top. ( I'm just a big kid...)
On the other end of the enjoyment scale, I was living in Long Beach when they were demolishing several old buildings downtown by imploding them. That was kind of interesting to watch, too.
I try to imagine living in a building like that and fall short. Nashville is growing up. I guess that's a good thing...
@Ken Anderson On a side note: Looking at your avatar and mine when I was in the 5th grade... If I saw those two walking down the street, I might cross over to the other side!
There's a new 67 storey block of luxury flats being built here in London and supposedly will be ready by 20120... 771 feet tall... 861...765 residential apartments, and will be the tallest apartment block in the UK... prices will start from just under £600,000 for a one bed apartment...
