Glad this site is moving along quickly.

Wow! Surprised this a concrete build

Concrete where necessary not necessarily concrete. The concrete is for crane base. They need the ballast the anchor the crane.

I meant….surprised it is a “concrete building” - hence the need for a regular crane and not one of those smallish ones they use for wood buildings

Gotcha. I would imagine those precast concrete slabs are pretty heavy.

1 level underground? Putting in drainage pipes around the crane base. They must have been working on this behind the scenes for a while, because it seems like it was very quick from when we first heard about this here on skyrise cities to construction commencing!

Looking at this last picture, the nice thing with this development is it will fill in more skyline and add density.

Half the basement walls are in.

precast concrete columns and beams.
Here is a better picture.

Wow, they ain't messing around. This on is going up quick.

That type of construction typically moves pretty quickly; curious to see how it all comes together.

Structurally precast or steel go up fast. its the finish that can take a while.
