The whole U.S. needs better. We are falling behind Spain, China, U.A.E., Germany, and so many other countries that are constantly producing architectural masterpieces. Architecture in the U.S. is falling by the wayside. I'm glad to see this tower going up, but we need more buildings like this across the country. We need to rebuild our image here and bring the U.S. back to a place that displays our accomplishments in engineering and technology through architecture.

Wow Cincinnati SO needs better.... we've fallen behind Columbus and Indianapolis... Make Great American Tower better please, so we dont have another Scripps Center... Short and sqauty

Cincinnati has an icon, it is the Tyler Davidson Fountain. It may not be internationally known but adding 100 feet to Queen City Square isn't going to create an icon either. Indianapolis has a 700 ft building and it certainly isn't an icon. Brussels, Belgium which is home to the European Union has a peeing statue as an icon. Icons come in all shapes and sizes and Cincinnati's is the Tyler Davidson Fountain. See more about the Brussels Statue here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manneken_Pis

What would go great with this new building is another tall skyscraper.... maybe on the site of Fifth Third Bank! Fifth Third Bank needs a new tower

Guest		24-Jan-2009 04:42
Yes, definately they need to make some last minute changes... This Tower needs to be a lot taller 760 feet? or taller? Cincinnati needs an icon, especially with Cincinnati-Dayton-Northern Kentucky metro area merger talks around 2010!! We need a taller building!

Guest		15-Jan-2009 00:36
This building needs to be a lot taller, in Cincinnati there are squaty towers. Carew, Scripps and now Great American Building at Queen City Square, Scripps and Carew Tower would have looked alot better if they had been taller. Hopefully they decide last minute changes to make this thing taller, so it can be an icon!

i think they should have made it 10 stories higher, so the tiera wouldnt look like half the building

ben		29-Jul-2008 07:46
they've taken down half of the western and southern garage

I am not an architect, but the building with its tiara is beautiful and fitting for a town with the nickname "Queen City". It is the right balance between being noticeably different from the city's other skyscrapers, but still compatible with the skyline as a whole. The city's skyline is not large enough to have a radical design in one of its largest buildings (smaller buildings yes, largest no). Thankfully, it does not look like mixed use skyscraper that is being proposed in Louisville, block-like and ugly. It will overpower and take away from Louisville's existing and attractive skyline.

"a modern tower" this tower is anything but modern. it is a poor, postmodern interpretation of well done art deco buildings such as the carew tower and the chrysler building. the architect should be ashamed. I agree cincinnati needs a modern skyscraper, but look around the world at what is being built presently and it pretty quickly becomes apparent that this building is 20 years too late if not 80.

Guest		30-Nov-2007 01:32
Are you certain that it will start construction by next year and does it have all the 50 or 60% lease to start?

Guest		04-Oct-2007 23:46
it will start within the next year.....how do i know? because my company is building it and we have started the preconstruction for it....give a another year and you will see the southern western garage being demolished

Guest		16-Jun-2007 02:42
Was in The Enquirer a few days ago about it's start soon, may even be taller than anticipated!

Guest		21-Feb-2007 20:33
Why is this project taking so long...I understand leasing but it seems to be so dragged out for a project proposed in '90....

Guest		21-Feb-2007 20:33
Height doesnt make a city, but to compete in America, a tall building can do wonders for image, progress and the economy. Its been over 70 years since Carew was built and its past due for a modern tower..just wish they would stop wasting time

I havent heard anything as well, when is phase II starting its taking to long to get construction started, at least give the public some news about this.

Guest		16-Feb-2007 03:02
I haven't heard about Phase II in a while, they've had plenty of time to fill the lease.

Guest		17-Jan-2007 23:01
I think we could use the actual picture of Queen City Square phase I on this site instead of the rendering picture box

Jayson		08-Jan-2007 21:40
Cincinnati doesn't need to compete with Indianapolis, it is far superior. Height doesn't make a city, visit Europe sometime and you will see what I am talking about.

Guest		07-Jan-2007 14:22
I figured they would make a real splash and build something tall enough to compete with Cleveland or at least Indianapolis...

Jayson		29-Dec-2006 04:02
Per Western Southern, Queen City Square Phase II won't happen until Phase I is completely leased.

Guest		28-Dec-2006 16:36
Is this skycraper going to happen, what's holding this project off, QCI is compeleted.

antares		15-Dec-2006 22:10

Jayson		27-Oct-2006 21:24

Guest		27-Oct-2006 18:53

Here is a thread on Queen City Square: http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php?topic=3170.0

Guest		23-Jul-2006 00:20
Is Phase II starting soon, I've been Downtown for a couple of weeks, and Phase I is done but I can tell they havent leased it yet.

Seaweed		08-Jun-2006 00:00
You've got to wonder if Phase II is ever going to happen...
