Every day now the Wachovia Corporate Center Wells Fargo East Coast HQ Duke Energy Center is looking more and more like the real, finished, thing.
It still surprises me to find people who don’t know what the final tower is actually supposed to look like. So I’ve collected the best renderings I can find, and am posting them here. If you know of any I’m leaving out, feel free to add them in the comments.
Thx Justin. It didn’t know what the final product was to look like– renderings are kinda Dubai-ish. LOL
I also did not know what final product was supposed to look like. I agree. It does look like a building from Dubai. Then again we have several pink buildings so Charlotte has an eclectic skyline.
Thanks for posting. I like the built in carry handle at the top. Sort of reminds me of a wine bottle carrier.
Wonder if it was designed that way due to it FIRST being a bank building. “Yes you can buy our bank, would you like to take the building with you as well?”
Yeah! I glowing phallus to tower over our lives. Weeee.
I wish it should be the best example for saving the energy
pointy & shiny.
