Finished this last year, thought I would share. Holds six kegs on floor. I had no real plans, just used a lot of ideas found here.

Was able to split the top with some bench hinges. I have to remove a front keg to replace the back one but I do not mind.

I haven't seen any with this type of split top for front access without tipping the tower back. I like it but in my limited keezer building experiences, it is tough to get good seals. Do you have significant condensation on the interior walls or did you manage a tight seal? Pretty impressive work either way
 
Thank you. I do have some condensation but nothing a fan and a bit of damp rid can not handle.
The bench seat hinges that were used pull forward and up at the same time the lid is open so that keeps that back part of the seal intact. They also have springs that I think helps hold the lid tight when closed
