Apparently they have significant work to do now in the basement to strengthen the foundation for the one tower revision. Full mobilization should be any time now.

Spoke with a friend of mine who works for Northland who says it is "active now" (sutton) with ~5 people, "slowly getting things ready"... take that with a grain of salt I suppose

Can you ask your friend what the hell happened with this development lol |
Don't forget most GC's generally self perform very little of a construction project. The projects effectively get built by trades.

I see the cranes been moving around at Sutton Place. The trolley is in a different location on the boom than it has been for years basically. Not much going on, but it seems more than just the wind moving the crane around. yesterday I thought oh wow look at the crane go!! But it was the storm that rolled through and nothing more.

I would assume it wont be real until they get that jib re-installed on the north crane. The developer did say they have significant below grade work needed before anything starts to rise.
|
Boo.. thanks for the info. I did not notice the trolley had moved previously.

A while back someone posted saying they knew someone inside Northland. Did they tell what happened on this development? It seems every wrong choice was made from start to now. |

It's weird. Like why not sell the project if they don't want to build and operate it?

Walked through TNS at lunch today. Such a nice vibe in there with the water feature and the modern buildings but man are those air handling/blowers in there obnoxious as hell. Once I noticed them, its all I could hear. Wonder if theres anyway to reduce the dBs on those. whew.
|
Because of the outside air temp the variable speed air handling units may be ramped up to "warp speed" to try and keep things cool

Some new intel of middling reliability: I was talking to a guy who's a fellow regular at my usual pub. Says he'll be working on Sutton "in five or six months" and his trade is carpentry. Someone better informed about high-rise construction than I am might be able to more usefully interpret that. Two giant caveats are that this guy barely speaks English and is somewhat odd besides.
