Porkopolis Square is a fictional skyscraper being constructed somewhere in Ohio. Climbing a real skyscraper would probably be a fun, but extremely dumb thing to do. Besides, here at Local Architecture our correspondents usually just sneak into old abandoned buildings. Sneaking into 600 foot unfinished skyscrapers isn't our business. They would probably have unclimbable fences and security guards anyways.
This is what a view from a skyscraper under construction would look like.
The view over the edge of the floor slab.
The view 400' down the mechanical shaft.
This is about 3/4 of the way to the top, I think.
Looking straight down at the cranes building the parking garage and lobby rotunda.
Panorama of downtown from floor 30 or so. Click to enlarge.
Apparently they hadn't finished the stairs.
Looking through the floor down a future mechanical/plumbing chase of some sort.
This is what Porkopolis probably looks like from down the street at Mike Brown Stadium.
The tower under construction, as seen from a nearby rooftop.
