I think a lot of the talk regarding the blow through floor was regarding the rendering in the link posted by r18tdi, in which it is much more apparent and glaringly ugly looking as compared to the elevation we all saw in the curbed article last July. We all knew about the blow through floor, but it just looks a lot more pronounced in that rendering. Again, hopefully that's just to satisfy demands from the building department, and will actually look more homogeneous and fluid with the rest of the building's facade when actually built.

I may be mistaken, and that rendering may have been posted already, but I haven't seen it in any recent posts in this thread.
