If one didn't know that this project was essentially just a re-cladding - I know it's more than that - you could be forgiven for assuming at this stage of development that this was new construction.

Ha, I was thinking the exact same thing. Sort of like we're getting to the exciting part.

Thanks for the update Klaus.

Should only get better from here on out. Stone should be going up soon and a small surprise or two may still be in store.

Surprise with the stone? Could be interesting.

Pic by me today.
Will the floorplate extend out to where the steel is at the corner
(and they'll add onto each floor slab?)

Pics by me today:

Some new steel supports under the clear windows showing the lower limit of the second skin
and some new steel columns up on the top floor.

So I guess the top level alcove / canopy won't be as deep or as long as depicted on the model?
