If I were to guess I'd imagine the major reason would be concrete availability and mobilization. I don't see an on-site mixing plant so I'm assuming they're bringing in trucks at a time to deliver the concrete. That area of town is probably difficult to ensure the trucks will be available and on time given traffic and other projects in the area, so doing it at night may have that benefit.
That area during the day also would have a good deal of heat and wind coming off the river which would mean excess evaporation that you wouldn't get during night pours. With the questionable lack of skilled labor in town they may have inexperience crews doing these slab pours that can't handle high-evaporative conditions.
I'm just guessing from a management stand point, who really knows?
