Maybe the workers wanted their privacy back?

Maybe the camera was getting bombed every 5 microseconds by the people who have put down deposits? The constant need to update could cost up to 50 dollars a month and that was biting into their profits.

That's not really how that works, though......

No problem without webcam. We have our own in-house updater: Mcminsen

Impressive update of an impressive construction site Mcminsen.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. The supporting column is hidden inside the boxes. Smart design.

Plus the steel framing of the theatre has diagonal bracing for the cantilever (like a bridge).
The other parts of the theatre level do not appear to have the diagonal braces
- so the appearance will probably look different between the 2 types of structure on the east side through the glazing.

i dropped by to check out the mall today. I was surprised how busy it was, finding parking wasn't as easy as it used to be, granted there is less of it. Quite a few people actually shopping. The sears has "the cut" now which seems to have attracted a few people but the brand names they carry I have never really heard of before and its not really easy to figure out what section is the off price section and what is the normal section.

it's now busy because of the new Bubble Waffle

I think sometimes they just move the camera around or zoom in and out. I seen it happen before when I was watching it once.

Thanks for the updates excel: love to see chunky tall buildings going up!

[excel]

You're welcome. I agree, these buildings are definitely looking chunkier than I was expecting.

[donslade]

does this stmt from the amazing brentwood website mean the residential towers, at least for bldg 1 will likewise be ready for move in "ALL-NEW SHOPPING, DINING AND ENTERTAINMENT COMING FALL 2018"

[officedweller]

Doubt it.
They'll probably open the commercial retail first to generate revenue (reverse the bleeding) before the condos are finished.

The first 33 floors are going to be rental units operated by Shape
