Looks to me like they're up to 23 or 24 right now, so 4 or 5 more to go.

This guy needs to get some skin in the game. (watching football so I'm in a Madden comment kind of mood)

This one is almost topped out and there is still no cladding (that I can see). Is that unusual? I'm really excited about this one and am hoping to get a glimpse of the cladding to get a better idea of what the finished product will look like. Anyone have any idea why the cladding hasn't started going up yet?

The window wall system took sometime to past all the specified tests and kept failing them. It recently past and no it is not typical for this to happen. normally once you are up around 10 floors you start erecting the exterior wall system that way by the time you top out you will be roughly 3 floors behind.

What kind of failures were being observed and out of specifications?

This this is huge! This corridor is major now. Is this stretch of Market Street humanized at all though?

Ehh. Not really. A few retail spots and restaurants but a lot of the stretch between 34th and 38th has very little retail. Good thing this building will have ground floor retail.

True that retail is slim but food-wise tt's gotten better in the past few years. It was just The Nosh and food trucks from 3001 to 38th, now you have Landmark, that tasty asian place, 7-11, Nelson's Market (which has a CRAP load of 6-packs for sale now BTW), Drexel's Starbucks (still hidden though perhaps not as bad as the prior building), Slainte is far better than whatever dive was there (despite the occasional corpse in a car outside it), etc.

Perhaps the shops on Samson, 36th, etc. make it tougher to open shops on Market(pre-existing competition). Not to mention the summer months are tough for some shops/eateries to weather when the student population drops.

Cheers,
G.
