One question: Are they ever going to complete that crown ???

I'm tired of looking at those ugly sheets of white cloth...

I have the impression that most of the work is being done inside the tower.

My Brother is a local 3 electrician on the site and he says its mostly internal work at the moment.

They're filling in the crown facade west to east. The sheets are going on a long vacation.

Gul, how come your handle is green while everyone else's is blue?

Obviously most of the work-force is being slated to work on the interior, but regardless progress is being made on the crown, even though is appears slow. Point is there is more cladding on the crown today then there was a month ago.

^ Progress measured on a monthly basis.

yeah, pretty much.

Atleast that's how it looks.

As long as it isn't measured in years like Duffy Square, then that is fine with me

Construction Watch: Continued Delays at BofA Tower

Because these guys have a parade to watch! But can you blame them? That is a pretty sweet view.

NYC4Life · #**2913** Posted **Jul 17, 2008, 2:20 AM**

Better to be delayed over a once in a lifetime parade over some fools climbing buildings

NYC2ATX · #**2914** Posted **Jul 17, 2008, 3:49 AM**

lmfao those dumbasses at curbed.

scalziand · #**2915** Posted **Jul 17, 2008, 4:13 AM**

I love the curbed arrows.

Islander · #**2916** Posted **Jul 17, 2008, 5:22 AM**

What are you guys talking about? The arrows were very helpful. How is it possible to tell which people are standing on the street and which are standing on the scaffolding fifteen feet above the street without the arrows telling you? Exactly... it isn't.

NYC4Life · #**2917** Posted **Jul 17, 2008, 8:30 AM**

The fact the color of the arrows is the same as the "Red" carpet is no surprise. I guess curbed.com tried hard to "curbe" attention from the actual All-Star parade to the construction workers viewing it

For those of you that don't know, everything at curbed.com is done in humor. Obviously they were joking about the "delay".
