I think the core might be done. They’re dismantling the formwork today.

This tower looks like what happens in SimCity when you finally hit a new density cap and the game starts building taller structures in an area that while zoned dense residential has mostly been growing single family homes due to the RCI demand.

Atlanta being a prime example of that!

What a great feeling that is!

Meanwhile, special shoutout to that weirdo building on the right that looks like an overgrown 1960s fire station

That’s a big mat for the low-rise building.

That building has a sign on it that says “Design Consultants Building” which always makes me laugh since those tiny windows and horrible Taco Bell roof don‘t exactly exude “design” to me.

Pretty cool - you now have a nice visual marker of Union Sq from Central Sq. A view down Prospect st.

Somethings going on at the Beacon Sales building. Why the enclosure - asbestos abatement before a full demo?

 

[RandomWalk]

Pick your poison, they probably have it.

 

[Dr. Rosen Rosen]

Lots of site work happening around the tower.
