And now, eight months after topping out, the building’s signature glass curtain wall is complete, just in time to welcome tenants early this spring.</p></em><br /><br /><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">

The 10-story glassy building was shaped by the firm's strategy of studying the sun's angles to prevent shadows but increase natural daylight and view inside. Get a better look in the new renderings and construction photos released by developer Aurora Capital.</p></em><br /><br /><figure><img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/qr/qr7ycnjd47dwd9l8.jpg"><figcaption>Rendering © Neoscape for Studio Gang Architects</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/2d/2ddybfqtlthel7fp.jpg"><figcaption>Rendering © Neoscape for Studio Gang Architects</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/gm/gmg6pk626ewuhm81.jpg"><figcaption>Photo © Max Touhey</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/g7/g79i2ifvmmz0v0zh.jpg"><figcaption>Rendering © Neoscape for Studio Gang Architects</figcaption></figure>
