^TWRWatcher, thanks for that Walsh website, BCBS video. Great to hear the behind the scenes story. All projects should have that kind of coverage.^

Hello friends and skyscraperfans,

here I present you my final update for the BCBS Vertical Expansion:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDUkGEH74Xw

Music: Guru Josh Project - Crying In The Rain (Funkerman Remix)

Attention: Between minute 3 to 5 the song gets naughty and is not safe for work, still enjoy!

Thanks Andy! Video is awesome, and I had to mute it at work towards the middle of the song lol.

Staging area is gone and plaza has been rebuilt

I always liked that plaza. It's great that they were able to preserve the trees on the perimeter while using the plaza for staging. Of course, it's weird to see trees on top of a parking garage like that...

EarlyBuyer · #**1070** Posted **Nov 15, 2009, 7:14 AM**

Agreed.

I found it interesting how the sun was reflecting on the original section of the tower as opposed to the recently completed addition.

BTW - I believe that we can classify the tower as now being completed. I've already chabged it on Emporis.

^Nice capture, bvic. That really shows the contrast between the two curtain walls.^
