The crane operator takes the construction hoist (temporary elevator for material and workers) to the floor where the base of the crane is accessible and then climbs up the interior of the crane tower. The crane tower will have either a ladder with a cage or a very steep stairway within it.When tall buildings such as this are being built, how in the world does the crane operator gain access to the cab?!! That thing is pretty high in the air!!! Holy moly!!!

Not quite Gotham, not sin city, maybe Piltover and the seedy, oppressed undercity of Zaun? (Arcane)
It's ok to make comparisons with Miami. Each city in the world have something to offer/redeeming qualitiesDoes anyone know if, with this final version, will the top (hesitant to use "crown") officially be lit up at night? I feel like some of the renders make it look that way, but it's hard to tell.
Not that anyone here wants to be compared to Miami, but the aerial footage of Miami during the Celtics game last night was striking. It's amazing how their skyline is light up at night compared to the dim skyline of Boston...

Boston in general is a bit darker than a lot of other cities. Inadequate street lighting - not having enough of it, and not having lights that a very bright, is a reason. Also, it just fits the aesthetic of Miami. They have a lot of bridges that are lit up in bright lights too. It's pretty unique on the scale and style that Miami does their buildings.
This is an issue I have with Boston in general. It is so damn dark at night. For a city that is all about walking, it sure isn't safe to do so after sunset because we become invisible due to low ambient lighting. Let's light up the skyline, install more or brighter street lamps, make the place stay alive for a few more hours of the day.Not that anyone here wants to be compared to Miami, but the aerial footage of Miami during the Celtics game last night was striking.

There is a dichotomy here comparing the two cities; yeah, it would be "cool" to have the bright skyline vibe but there is also the needless energy waste to light up the skyline, just for the sake of it.
