Can you ask someone there, when the next concrete pour is?

Also, when will they start working on the garage floors?

And, of course, pictures! There's a plexiglass viewing spot on the wall shown above, maybe you can take some pictures from there, showing the lower area?

Thanks!

These images from Golden State Warriors show just how dramatic the new skyline will be with just this one tower and 181 Fremont. Now add a few more 800-900+ footers in there.

Tonight one of the workers at the site told me we should see steel in about two months.

I love that there's no podium/wasted land. Unlike with the LA highrises, which almost always have podiums and plazas, SF seems to be much more tightly developed/urbanized. This results in a much more fine-grained and high-quality urbanism.

What a great spot for an arena! I wish San Diego could pull something together like this.

Some of us preferred the original site, the pier between the marina and the bridge.
