17 tower cranes currently. 205 Race (The Bridge) will make 18.

Yes it is, This building is going to stand out so much. The drive up from 76 is going to be awesome.

Wow the "European silver steel" stopped after a few floors

Sorry guys I had too.

I thought the core would be moving up faster but it doesn't look like there's much work going on with it.

Seems to be moving pretty fast to me. Looks like the steel framing is going to proceed largely in tandem with the core on this one. Unlike buildings such as CITC, where the core growth far exceeds framing. Different construction cites and buildings warrant different approaches and some comes down to contractor preference as well.

Landscaping renders on this are awesome! Hope it actually looks like this.

Quick shot from the expressway

1487 · #**338** Posted **Dec 4, 2015, 4:53 PM**

this building has relatively small floorplates for an office tower.

colemonkee · #**339** Posted **Dec 4, 2015, 5:42 PM**

This will be the tallest tower of the bunch, correct?

That is correct. The second phase calls for another tower closer to South Street, with later phases adding an additional two (smaller) towers on top of a parking structure for the southern part of the site.
