If I remember the Element/Aloft started a floor or so under ground and has nearly topped out in the time it has taken them to dig the hole and get to ground level...

I do think the challenge with the flooding and design of the flood gate were their initial issues, I also think they have a very tight space to work in one of the smallest footprints of a building, I would think deliveries and such is a nightmare to coordinate along with limited projects going on at one time with a potential shortage of workers.
