Reynolds and Reynolds, family partners and creators of the Quorum Center, have received approvals for
their planned glass and concrete Reynolds Tower. They finally won approval for a 32 story version of the proposal.
Because this requires acquisition of public land, an agreement with the city exists, revised often in
the past, that requires development to be completed in July 2009.
The tower itself remains tall, but is smaller in overall size than earlier proposals. The Reynolds team went through many revisions of just what mix of uses would work best. They ended up with a varied mix of office, hotel, retail, parking and some condominiums. Rising from a relatively high elevation, at the corner of Hillsborough and Dawson Streets, it will be one of the tallest in the downtown skyline. The location also bridges new development in the Central Business District with new development around Glenwood South. The building would have a glass crown on top, lit at night for maximum impression.
