LOL

And just look at the lettering on the portico/gate/whateverthatis. So poorly spaced. It's like no one actually cared about any aspect of this.

Looks like some place in China.
The North Korean military parade on TV showed a large number of 20-30-40 storey buildings. I think it is time to find N Korean skyscraper fans who can keep us updated, or arrange tours for those frustrated posters who could bring back tips for HRM planners. Maybe a short chat and a quick photo-op with the glorious leader Kim whilst he sends a brief video message to Mayor Savage and the council.

Well, the present majority on HRM Council are probably more aligned with the beliefs of glorious leader Kim than the people who they supposedly represent. And certainly the army of HRM planners subscribe to the principles of Central Planning that such regimes proscribe.

If HRM decides to organize its own army and navy then we should all sit up and take notice.

The CAO could organise a comedy fest and as MC he could sit in the wings waiting to apologise for improper language.

Building 3 is underway:

[teddifax]

There is a type of crane there now.... not the typical one, but looks more like a bendable arm..... don't know what it is called.

[kph06]

Building 3 is nearly topped out and building 4 excavation is underway. It's not a major deal, but they didn't really follow the original plan, the buildings vary slightly and they don't align as originally shown. Building 2 & 3 are almost parrelell but 3 seems to be closer to the roundabout a little. They seem to be more or less loosely placed on the plan based on what works for the site at the time. Similar to the wavy wall along Washmill.

[kph06]

The crane was being removed today, surely it will be in place for building 4 soon as they are on the second floor now. The 4 buildings are not uniformly placed around the centre hub building as shown in the renderings.

[teddifax]

Friends have told us that they know people scheduling a move to the 3rd tower from the second tower as their view is being blocked by the 3rd tower.... these 4 buildings were supposed to be built like spokes from a wheel, but as we can see this wasn't done.... I wonder, if they are going to squeeze in one or two more buildings... I know only 4 buildings have been approved! [
