North Dakota to get new Tallest

Post by iamjacobm »

This is pretty cool.  23 floor 352 foot tower proposed for Downtown Fargo.

Good for Fargo. It looks kind of like a birdcage. Or a really big book shelf. I think they need to post another rendering...

5 years later this finally broke ground with a new design at 18 stories.

ESPN broadcast GameDay from Fargo a few years ago and I remember thinking that it looked like a really cool downtown.

Nice project, will really help the skyline. Fargo has a nice compact downtown. The city itself reminds me of Sioux Falls. They are about the same size. Extremely clean place. Somewhat of a college town. Brutally cold winters makes it a place not for everyone though.

:) I sorta was thinking the same thing. It looks overall very nice, and good for growing-like-a-weed Fargo. Yet, the design looks a slight tad odd (or off) to me. I'm sure when finished, in person, it will be sharp. Fargo needs a new statement with all their new growth, imo.
I can get pushed out because I'm "too much" for some. Then, an observer of me comes suddenly swooping in to "fill my shoes." People are always more accepting of the new one, because their feathers aren't truly ruffled by them. (Yawn) I can count on it every time.
