huh... well they're assembling the reinforcing steel for the mat foundation at the bottom of the cofferdam yesterday... so you guys can look at these pictures and make your best presumptions as to what is going on or is not going on at the site and assume whatever you want, but the core is about to take shape, so whatever that means... who knows? but if this is merely a fantastic show being put on by shelbourne, then damn... it's an extensive and expensive one for sure and certainly makes you wonder how absurd the idea of a gamble this huge would be... i mean, that is what all you doomsayers think, right? that all this is some kind of great big dog and pony show of some sort?

...also, from what i've seen down there in the last few days, it looks like the steel is ready to take shape for the 7 perimeter columns. harry, you're down there just about every day, all the reinforcement for those footings is in place?
