5.5/5.6.21 - Looks as though the north side of the core has topped out. I think the remaining side has one or two left from my amateur count.

Yesterday Evening - Side of frame was still there.

I love how shiny that glass is. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

I'll have to take a pic tomorrow and have no idea why I didn't, but from the viewpoint on the harbor the core 'appears' substantially taller already than the Sudbury. I'll follow up tomorrow...

Agree. A couple of photos from Wednesday.

I can report they are dismantling the other side of the frame. We are topped off here.

Walking over to North Station yesterday and caught this beautiful angle.

Something about that last image that makes those pedestrians look like photoshopped fake people in renderings.

I blame the filter on the Google Pixel camera.

HDR perhaps? It can make things look cartoonish.

This is looking at lot less fat than I thought it would, which is a good thing

I was thinking the same thing and as the glass is applied, I think it will continue to appear thinner and taller. I was also thinking that once the glass "fins" reach their total height, based on the top of the core, I actually think this is going to be taller than anticipated. Maybe it will just appear taller, but either way, that only helps visually drawing the eyes upward instead of sideways.
