Don't know if this link has been posted before, but the website for the Ritz-Carlton Residences currently has over 50 construction photos:

Plus, another page has a rather cool rotating building model showing where all the Ritz-Carlton Residences amenities will be:

From the look of the progress it shows, then yes, they have likely been posted already.

Haven't seen an update in awhile. Seems like this thing shot up quick, then slowed down. I thought I read somewhere that once they hit around 9 floors, they would stop for awhile so they could do some concrete work? Anyone know what's up?

They're working on the 13th floor currently. I took some pictures this weekend, but my Internet at home has been down all weekend, and I haven't been able to post the pics. As soon as I'm back online at home, I'll post.

On the 19th or 20th floor, depending on how you count (I count poorly). Interesting note on this first pic, from the corner of Nokia Plaza. A security guard saw me taking pictures and kindly asked me to stop because it was against the rules. I politely asked her to present me with the law that stated I couldn't take a picture in a public place, then told her that if it really bothered her - and her bosses - I would gladly stop if she could get an LAPD officer to make me do so.





The convention spaces and part of the theater.

Glad you stood up for yourself as a photographer. I had been told that I couldn't take pictures "because of 911" while on Bunker Hill once, in the street. I told him, "what does 'because of 911'?" mean and he was like "you know, no photos of skyscrapers in the United States" and I was like, "well, I don't know, and wasn't aware that the constitution was changed in the last few years" I went on shooting, I am not going to be intimidated.

gawd I hate rent a cops, I am really, really sick of being told what I can and cannot take photos of when in a public place. Usually I have found real cops are fine and it is the rent a cops which have the power trip sort of complex.
