I know it's been 10+ years, but I still think of that building as CVS

When I started working in the area in 2006, the CVS was across the street, and still is. It used to be where UDG is? It's been over 15 years for sure.



Edit: This tower's older brother makes a really cool appearance in the view above. Here it is zoomed in.
 
Not that I have *any* experience with or condone this type of behavior, but I may have observed over the years that most construction sites are laughably easy to breach, if one were so inclined 🤷‍♀️
 
Is there a cap on how fast it can rise based on curing times for the floors below? Yes, they have all of the additional, temporary supports, but I wonder if that caps the speed in which recently poured floors can take on the stress of x# additional floors above?

These buildings typically remove the temp supports once there are 4 or 5 additional floors poured above, so about a month later when the concrete's pretty much fully cured.
