^ Very nice vantage point.

Here's two looks from a couple of days ago, kinda late in the day:

That's a great shot, like how you can start to see the cutaway for the roof line.

Gotta few different angles...it’s looking pretty good

That's awesome and if you zoom in on the last pic in the series you get a great view of the sloping roof line. Thanks for posting!

Yes, I was just thinking that! All my fretting over the sloping roof not actually coming to fruition was unfounded. Whew!

You can start to see it on pic #2 on the backside as well. It’s going to be beautiful when complete and I can’t wait.

Great pictures, dallaz. Thanks for sharing.

Here's one from today showing a bit of sloping on the left-hand side.

Is this the best commercial/residential architectural addition to Dallas in the last 10 years? Other candidates— M&O, Virgin, Epic?

I'd say it has to be this or the Epic. M&O is too short and already seems to have been overtaken by surrounding development. The Epic is great because of the new stuff as well as the renovations of the Knights of Pythias building, which is a true gem IMO.

Working on 45 and about to start 46, crane extenders were being moved around late today so that should be going up.

It looks like the could be cover the Ross side of that parking garage finally.

clcrash19 · Post by **clcrash19** » 28 May 2019 07:41

So are they working on the final floor then? It definitely looks like 45 is completed... and will there be anything on top of 46 for the final roof?

Yes it will keep going up until they reach the peak. Guessing here, but peak looks like it may be the equivalent to 4-5 more floors.

R1070 · Post by **R1070** » 29 May 2019 21:37

I think there might be one more floor left. It looks like the steel is in place to start another level of pillars.

Thanks for posting! I love how narrow the tower appears from this angle.

^ Like one of those NYC skinny towers.

Except, thankfully, it's no skinny residential building like NYC that looks like it could tip over at the slightest wind or tremor--there's actually something structural to the "skinny" look at Fountain Place.

I don't care how much they prop up and fluff up that thing in NYC, I wouldn't live in that building if they *gave* it to me.

Looks like they are starting work on another floor today when i drove by.. probably one more full floor or 2 at most before topping out.

If you include 13 they are currently setting the floor for 46, if you don't count 13 it's 47 so maybe they included a 13th floor? Still seems to be a fairly significant gap between where they are and point where the tower peaks.

Couple of slightly different angles showing the upper floors.

Here is a rendering I stole from a DALBruin post from last July.

The slant has begun on one corner but on the other side the apartments will continue for several more floors.

I always wished the 2nd tower would get built someday but I have to say this is really looking good next to the existing building and compliments it very nicely.

Now what about that BoA twin....

Dragon_Lady · Post by **Dragon_Lady** » 07 Jun 2019 18:09

I agree about building the original twins; would look stunning, especially if Fountain Place 2 is rotated 90 degrees from the original. Fun to dream.

They failed to secure the construction materials on this site. The video in this tweet shows them flying off in the direction of the original fountain place:

This picture after the storm shows what appear to be windows out on Fountain Place, presumably from the impact of this material:

Drove by today on Woodall and looks like they raised the crane significantly again this morning.

And all of the fountain place windows were fixed this week. That was fast.

I noticed that, too. I assume the building under construction has an ample supply of matching glass.

Are the existing FP and the new one under the same ownership?

northsouth · Post by **northsouth** » 18 Jun 2019 19:08

Definitely appears that they've stopped building concrete floors, most to all of the falsework is gone. Next up, the steel structure framing to build the top of the building.

Post by **CTroyMathis** » 20 Jun 2019 22:00

^Indeed.

A vantage point from late this afternoon at KWP:

https://twitter.com/CTroyMathis/status/ ... 6585352193

Had to improvise since the view of AMLI-FP from a bit higher at the Treehouse is blocked by Spring/Summer tree growth of said house tree. . .

Post by **cowboyeagle05** » 22 Jun 2019 11:33

I was at the Late Nights event yesterday at the DMA and people kept pointing at the Amli construction asking what it was.

Post by **Tnexster** » 24 Jun 2019 16:53

There is some steel framing starting to appear on the north face, can't get a great look at it but can at least see it's there. Looks like they are starting to frame in the angled portions of the tower.

Definitely a great addition! Would like to see a couple more added, especially on the other side of downtown.

AMLI Fountain Place as of July 7, 2019. Looks like a few more floors will be added to the top.
