It's a steel truss. Floors 23/24 are the amenity floors. I believe this is 25 or 26.

Ah, that makes a lot of sense - I was going to describe the panels as satin finished, but I wasn't sure if it was just dirt

You can see the x beams installed on top of the 5th and 10th beam, from south to north, of the west side of the current floor via their webcam.

It looks like a core cell has just dropped off on the north side.

Wow, 680 N Lakeshore was a beast compared to the rest at the time

Yes, belt truss / outrigger truss nodes at mechanical floors

There was no 680 N Lakeshore - it was 666 N Lakeshore at the time.

Hot damn that glass might be my favorite of this cycle. The reflection is crisp and smooth, looking more silver than blue which is a plus. I'm sure the cloudy skies are helping this.

What a beast! Great shots/posts today Nick 2

I'm loving those steel panels, they have a weighty presence.

KWillChicago · #**1713** Posted **May 25, 2019, 11:04 PM**

I just looked at the webcam. The core of the first setback is completed and the forming walls have been moved inward. 5 more floors of steel to go until we have the floor of the first setback.

less blue than I expected, which is good

I'm not sure if a link to the webcam was posted at one point on this forum, but here is a link to the webcam and a screenshot from today 5/26/19.

Sorry folks, but the glass blue. It's not in any way silver. It's pretty dark, which is nice, sort of 155 Wacker-ish, but not as saturated. Leans a little more gray. In direct light from the west, you can see the blue pretty clearly.
