They're all visible now Dalton... Sweet photos btw...

Glad photobucket worked for you..

BTW I loved this picture of the Millennium Park Crown Fountain

Is it just me, or does the lady in the projection look like she's having gastro intestinal discomfort ????

Not at all. Ghost, you do great work! Your Photoshop rendings are a terrific way to keep track of the building's progress.

How long have they been working on the transfer floor? Are we close to the end, or still a few more months?

Anyway, I think this is the first one accurate photoshopping.

Spectacular shots, LoyolaBeachView! It's amazing how different this building can look depending on the weather conditions.

Ok, now those pics are just amazing! This building will be stunning when it is finished. I think its almost groundbreaking architecture because it is sooooo contextual, I don't think a building has ever been designed to fit in so well on this scale before. I mean it even takes the mood of the weather. Can you imagine what it will look like when its high enough to be in the weather?

Good post. We all know how blue and vibrant this building is on a clear blue sky day. But those overcast photos show the mood of this building in its true light.

Great work! I can't believe this building is still beguiling, having seen the same shot about 80 times (no complaints!).

I can't wait to see Trump in the middle of a lightening storm this summer. That would be a sweet photo. This building is just sooo modern Gotham.

I'm not sure if its been brought up before, but what happens to tower crains vertical structure inside the building, and when the building is complete, how do they get the cab and other parts down? Helicopter?

With this one I'm not sure. I'm used to seeing the crane rise on the outside of the tower and then seeing it basically jacked back to the ground. This one will eventually rise on the outside of the tower also. I'm sure some of the tower pieces will be lowered to the ground by one of the cranes. I'm sure that the building will have it's own small cranes also, but I don't know if they will be able to handle the weight.

JR, can you answer this one?
