Glass passed mockup tests this week. If it passes the remaining tests this upcoming week they will start installing immediately 3 shifts of 24/7. There is a good chance we see glass before topping out. Fingers crossed.

I'd be surprised if the City let's them work 24/7 on this. They certainly will not be drilling into the concrete for the head and sill receptors overnight considering the noise ordinance. They will definitely be working 8:00 to 8:00, and can probably push it more if the work is not noise producing... at least until they get shut down. That is a residential neighborhood after all...
