I am really NOT digging how HoJo (Exhibit?) is turning out. The raw concrete looked way better than the finished facade.

I was walking around on Saturday and saw that they were in the process of adding like 4 more jumps to the crane for 750 N. Hudson, So I guess its going to be quite a bit taller than it is today

Yes, the tower crane at Hudson jumped a few segments since yesterday.

The crane for the Bush Temple tower is also going up right now. Yellow.

Is the crane for the Bush Temple tower or the Mormon church that is going in there?

Good question. I wasn't close enough to tell. I forgot all about the temple.

It's for the church. Caisson rigs were there a couple of weeks ago. Bush restoration is still deep in progress as well, so I don't imagine them starting work on the adjacent tower for a while.

The church is permitted - the new tower is not as of yet.

Looks like we have a nice high rise boom going on based on harryc's and solarwinds on the street reporting.

Anybody have figures or a guesstimation on how many are rising/demo/planned (highrises/skyscrapers)?

Some stats for us stats addicts?
