At over 700 feet tall ...
"It will thrust 61 stories into the sky, a trio of towers that will dominate Louisville's skyline"
"It will contain a contemporary art museum, restaurants and retail stores, 85 luxury condominiums, 150 lofts, a 300-room hotel, office space and a 1,100-car underground parking garage"
Construction begins 2007

Sounds like a great place to live in town. 
I remember when they built the new 70 story Renaissance Center (now GM headquarters) here in Detroit about '76. We went to the grand opening and drank a six pack of Heinekens in the lobby to christen the new swanky place before being the first to get kicked out.
Be the first on your block to make a Museum Plaza Lego reproduction.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

While I agree with Jonny that it's not the most aesthetically pleasing building to look at, I'm excited that it's being built! Louisville needs something like this! 
Wonder if Syracuse Supply or TRW has any bids on that building....both companies my dad used to work for when we lived in Louisville.
Maybe I'll get back to visit someday - I sure would love to see what my old house looks like now!
Thanks for posting this! I'll have to send a link to my family!

I disagree with Jonny (mom's do sometime). I think it's a really neat building.
