Construction Update: International Gem Tower

Extell’s International Gem Tower has been topped-out for a few weeks now, and the cladding continues to rise. Although the Tower is invisible from most of the city, it will actually be semi-prominent in the immediate vicinity. While its size has some to do with this, the new facade will be more important, as the building will literally look bejeweled (or at the very least, bedazzled).
