Seattle's new Rainier Square Tower topped out at 850 feet


[...] the Erection Co. topped out Seattle’s 850-ft-tall Rainier Square Tower, with its radical composite steel frame dubbed “speed core,” in only 10 months. Steel erection began last October in the lowest basement. The retail-office-residential building is on course for substantial completion next Aug. 13, according to Andy Bench, project manager for the developer, Wright Runstad & Co.



The NBBJ-designed Rainier Square Tower recently became Seattle's new second-tallest skyscraper after construction height passed 772 feet. 

View this post on Instagram You may recall my last photo share of Rainier Square Tower, which now has officially been ”topped out” and is the second tallest building in Seattle. Through my company’s work on this project I was lucky enough to attend the topping out party with two of my colleagues. Aside from the food we got to sign the final beam and witness its rise, to the very top of this impressive skyscraper. Hopefully, later in August, I will get to take a look inside on our next site visit and get to ride right to the top. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever get to do anything like I do in this job! #skyscraper #rainiersquaretower #toppingout #party #seattle #worklife #lucky #blueskies

Geo-Matrix Towers Span Across Oceans To Connect The Planet

Editors’ Choice 2020 Skyscraper Competition Ruwan Fernando Australia Ever since the Apollo mission showed us the first images of our ‘pale blue dot’ from space, the idea of the world as a ‘whole’ has captured the people’s imagination. Going beyond borders, oceans, and thinking of the continents as a continuous entity comes from this vision. Fifty years later, we face the existential threat of ecological disaster, and maybe revisiting the whole earth project seems like a way of recapturing that drive. This proposal looks at a network of towers that span across the oceans connecting the planet in a matrix that provides energy cleans the oceans and gives new chances for life to thrive. Fusion, Solar, and Hydro-power are used in this matrix with all of these being in high abundance in the ocean. The towers are also self-sufficient and mine minerals from the water as well as farm to support their communities. Research and manufacturing also feature heavily. The connections of the g
