Original Plans
Waterview Tower was originally planned to have parking for guests and residents on floors 2 to 11. A setback at the 29th floor level would have held a rooftop garden in addition to being the amenities level for all building guests and residents. The remaining 30th through 88th floors were to have comprised 233 condominium and penthouse residences. The tower was originally designed to be a concrete building with an exterior wall made of glass, granite and aluminum to generate a prismatic look. Per one of the city's approval conditions to include an outdoor garden, a terrace was planned to have spread over approximately 8,000 sq ft (740 m2) featuring landscaping, water elements, sun deck, and pet recreation area on the 29th floor.

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or plans:
“All good things were previously wicked things; every original sin has become an original virtue.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Consider any individual at any period of his life, and you will always find him preoccupied with fresh plans to increase his comfort. Do not talk to him about the interests and rights of the human race; that little private business of his for the moment absorbs all his thoughts, and he hopes that public disturbances can be put off to some other time.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
