Nice shots Cal
This has been at level 2 for awhile. It seemed progress has slowed down after it hit ground.

I guess they need to do alot of fancy concrete work at the base with regards to the design. Otherwise it would've been shooting up like a stock right now.

My mind has a hard time picturing just how tall this one will be, definitely a good thing

In addition to being very tall it will also be very thin. The cladding makes or breaks this one.

I also took some side shots, and so far it doesn't seem like the columns are going to angle outward in the earlier 'canoe' shape, but who knows it still may be early to see what they'll actually do with the last few floors of this feature. Here are some more pics I took today:

Nice progress, the lower floors always take the longest. But now that they're done, the tower should rise smoothly this summer/autumn.

Sorry for the side note here. But is anything happening to improve the train station? I remember seeing some great plans a few years back, but I have not heard anything since.
