No, I think he means the arching roof on the podium.

Great shots Delirium, now I say that boarded up window is 32 or 33 so looks like they're at about 57? So 4 or 5 more to go????

How about a "like" button so we don't have to waste posts just to compliment someone's picture or post?

Thank you for those unbelievable photos! It looks a lot sunnier up at the top of the Shangri-la and Trump than it did in Olympic Village today!

Yeah, I love January with the fog creeping in and out of city. Occasionally it lays so low that living on 45th floor we are above it. Makes for some nice photos, indeed.

One can hope! 8 more floors would be amazing. It is still a bit worrying that not even the constructions crew is sure how many more floors to go...

I sure hope 8 floors is correct, considering which trade I got that information from...

I highly doubt the accuracy of that information. According to the render used at the construction site and the Trump website, there were 7 more residential floors, plus the penthouse terrace to go (i.e., a total of 8 floors), as of December 15, 2014.
