I was looking at this building from Heritage Village yesterday and from that side it looks very nice, I like the way this is turning out. Unique one for sure.

As Epic tower #2 nears completion, the dramatic overhang gets more attention from passersby in Deep Ellum & on I-345.

In 1990 that was still true. Not anymore.
The Metroplex is likely out of the top ten in the Western Hemisphere now:
Greater NYC area
Chicago by itself
Toronto-Mississauga, Ontario lakefront
South Florida beachfront
Houston
Philadelphia-Camden
Los Angeles DT and Wilshire corridor
San Francisco-Oakland
Panama City, Panama*
Atlanta area
Outside the Western Hemisphere top ten there are:
Monterrey-San Pedro Garza Garcia, NL, MX (tallest buildings are 1002',958',916',764' and 675')
Mexico City, MX is shorter but might edge out Monterrey and DFW for the eleventh largest skyline in the Americas if São Paulo, Brazil, doesn't.
Atlanta, Seattle, Calgary and Vancouver-Surrey-Burnaby each have more 400' towers than Dallas-Ft. Worth do, now, and both Montreal and Boston areas will soon catch up to us in 400' towers too -- they're building at a fast rate because of higher demand amid higher citywide housing costs.
There are two or three cities in Australia with bigger skylines than Dallas' for that same reason.
Eurasia is too long to try to rank but there are a couple of dozen more cities that would be ahead of the Metroplex these days.
