Some good cantilever happening.

The brick looks absolutely awful. The mortar joints are too thick and too white. The brick is endless running bond, no variation. No lintel detail of any kind.

You can turn your head 30 degrees in any direction and see how brick should look.

I was never all that good at building structure physics - are these diagonal pieces holding up the cantilever? Obviously they’re not needed now, but perhaps when the concrete floors are poured, then the extra diagonal support is needed?

Steady progress.

 

[Dr. Rosen Rosen]

Not much to note on progress - maybe a level or 2 of steel. In the meantime there’s some fun and quirky installations to discover around the site.

(I didn’t hear anything)

Been waiting for these angled beams/columns to go in - gives a great sense of the massing to come.

 

[Dr. Rosen Rosen]

Getting very interesting now!

 

[Dr. Rosen Rosen]

Glazing getting hung. And the angled top roof line getting built up.

Hopefully the shape of this building looks better in person than the renders.

 

[Dr. Rosen Rosen]

Almost topped off.

Nor topped off yet! Still getting taller, apparently. More facade panels going up too.
