I have seen developers in Kansas City ask the FAA for very generous height permissions compared to what is actually planned.Nebraska>Iowa wrote: Tue Jul 21, 2026 9:07 pmI suspect this is real.

That being said, maybe they include and extra few feet. I cannot remember what the permits were for the Mutual Tower building & crane, but that should give us a definitive answer.

Searching region ACE (Central) for 2023, I found that there appear to have been two sets of permits filed for the Mutual Tower, though not the crane. The first set, filed 9/14/2023, lists the building height as the announced 677 ft. The second set, filed 11/13/2023, makes an addendum to say that a maintenance facility on top of the previously submitted permits will actually bring the height to 688 ft. So it looks like the Mutual tower may actually be a few feet taller than we expected!

Re: Nebraska Medicine
I like the looks of it while one would be riding up Farnam on the streetcar, to have perhaps a shadow-producing tower hovering over the streetscape, and also provide a sort of bookend to the towers downtown that would be flanking the line at both ends, sort of.

Yep, there has been a ton of movement at the foundation level.Renovator2559 wrote: Thu Aug 06, 2026 4:05 pm Weren't those concrete foundation walls built? Doesn't that take time?
