I don't think so since they have the construction trailer offices all set up. It must be some last minute issue with the City about the ROW closures. There is a lot of utility work and other stuff going on in that area.

So much dirt in that pic!

I've walked over there a couple of times and have a hard time visualizing just the two projects (98 RR and the Travis #1 and #2) in all that space. It almost seems like there's enough room between the two for another project.

We're probably among a rare group of people who get excited about dirt looking out of the window while enjoying a stay in a high end hotel. But that food pic is really not doing anything for me.

Hopefully that isn’t their “room service”.

My first thought was they must have picked up something to go at IHOP across the street to save money because the Fairmont is so expensive. But IHOP food looks better than that.

You beat me. I was about to say I'm shocked they don't know what Cane's looks like.

That is a kickass meal right there. Gotta get the bread BOB (buttered on both sides), though.

It may have been a bad pun, but it was a nice segue from the off topic to back on topic.

For whatever it’s worth, this may be a good cam to check progress on the tower once they begin. At least until it gets it’s own webcam.

I've lost track. Do they have building permits in hand?

(I see ROW closure permit and site plan permit, but not sure about building permits.)

They have both active and pending permits for the foundation and underground levels.

It looks like barricades are being delivered to the site today. I don't know what else those could be.
