the tower above

As if have a distinctly salmon-hued tower and the pixelation of Muhammad Ali weren't enough to impress architecturally of the downtown Louisville skyline, we are now and soon to be the proud future recipients of what will hopefully continue Louisville becoming not known just for some horse race but a real city pulsing with activity and culture. The Museum Plaza is an unconventionally stunning 62 story structure that will host gallery space, lofts, retail shops, and everything else that should entice Louisvillians and people in general to experience the heart of the city. Architect Joshua Prince-Ramus, of REX based in New York, concocted the avant-garde (for Louisville and the Southeast) structure that broke ground in early October and should be completed by 2010. The proposal video above makes you want 2010 to come a little bit sooner.
