Malcolm's packing up and shipping out - and the base for one tower crane's in. I'd guess excavation to start soon...
Thanks for the picture, John. Keep them coming, if you can..

If you're referring to the oxblue camera, I checked and Malcolm requested that the camera be taken down, probably due to their work being wrapped up. This was about a month ago.

SoCal Alan thank you so much

That explains why it is down now.

Would be nice if you can set up a web cam from your window where the previous pic was taken.

I really appreciate the information.

That's from another user, "JohnEye". But yes, it would be nice if he could setup a webcam.

What impact do you think this new development will have if any on this project?

It’s a new finding so who knows what impact it might have. Hopefully an easy fix. I worry this might derail the project or provide cover for investors to pull out.

Quote:
City Supervisor Aaron Peskin still wants to know how another building ended up in the same predicament as the Millennium Tower.
“This is shades of Millennium Tower all over again,” he said, adding that he later learned the city never required the Oceanwide project to provide any assessment of its impact on neighboring buildings.

Ugh, I hope this doesn't stall this project, or as ozone stated, provide a cover for investors to pull out.

John King at the Chronicle reports less dire measurements:

Quote:
A city inspector visited the site, reporting back that “there is nothing out of the ordinary that would raise concern of any settlement,” according to department records. At the same time, developer Oceanwide Center LLC was required to provide information on its monitoring of the impact of construction on 25 Jessie.

That information, filed in March, indicates that since October 2016 the two dozen or so columns supporting 25 Jessie had settled by no more than three-eighths of an inch. The biggest shift between two adjacent columns is one-eighth of an inch, well under the amount that would cause any “distress, serviceability or life safety concerns,” according to the monitoring report done for the developer by Nabih Youssef Associates.

^^^ That's good news! As the article points out... "Oceanwide Center will attach its shafts to bedrock, with focused excavation within steel casings to keep the ground disruptions contained." but also too " Oceanwide Center won’t be completed until 2021. There’s a long way to go."

The guy with the "FAA" jacket is flying the drone, which has a camera, at the top-middle of this photo.
