If you right click on the small pic on the main Twitter page and click "properties" you'll get a .jpg link to post here in the ordinary manner.
The size of the pic is large than on the Twitter page.

I'm still patiently waiting for the last sections of blue film to be taken down so I can get a shot of the final look.

Another reason to go back to the honeycomb design for 8X! Also that unpainted part at the top of the corner column drives me nuts. (it's not done i know)

It seems like it's open or will be very soon open for the new tenants to move in. Im Assuming demolition of the old jubilee house will follow after that. It will be nice to see the pos come down

Why did they use asphalt on the corner of the sidewalk instead on concrete? Looks cheap and weird, I noticed they did that at One Pacific in a section too... Temporary?

Finally… the pieces of blue plastic film are gone and we can see what I think is pretty close to the final look.

I always appreciate your photographs mcminsen, but I'm starting to wish I had your life; and that's real jealousy because I love my life!!!

And here we have yet another case of social housing looking better than the market housing around it.

That is social housing? Part of the 14 sites? Bloody impressive if that's where the money is best spent.
