What happened to Marquee's roof?

Marquee rendering Marquee

On a swing through the South Side yesterday, Joe and I stopped off in the South Loop and took a few construction photos. I had reported that Sedgwick PropertiesMarquee was topped off, so we went to check out the finished product at 1454 S Michigan Ave.

Marquee drawingSince the development was first announced, we’ve been posting the same rendering on Yo that is actually little more than a nice-looking elevation drawing. It appears that plans have changed since that drawing was first published, as the prominently-featured mansard roof is nowhere to be seen in the rendering that’s currently shown on the Marquee Web site (above, at left), and there’s no trace of it on the finished product (above, at right).

Commenter Allison mentioned yesterday that her Realtor is worried that the building won’t be finished. Does anyone else know what’s going on with this building?
