Nice update, thanks!

Waiting for the obligatory stupid questions about missing windows and if they are going to clean it when done...

What's up with those missing/mismatched panels? Is it going to remain like that?

LOL! I was actually slightly irritated by Jebby's "obligatory" questions until I saw Metro-One's comments.

I'm expecting that the spandrel won't be too visible since it's all hotel use - and hotels typically have sheer curtains. The sheers should [hopefully] match the spandrel panels.
i.e. Westin Grand looks very uniform, despite transparent (but tinted) windows.

Drove past on Pacific today - there's clear glass installed above the main entrance now.
