150 Riverside's crane was erected 5 months after mat pour and Riverpoint's crane was assembled 2 months after (erected the tower and climbing system soon after the pour but crane itself took a little longer because of core I guess)
If it is gonna be bottom climbing through the core they need to get ~100 feet of the core going before they can drop the tower crane in there. If it's top climbing its probably gonna be outside of the core and they're now working on finishing the excavation around the core so a base would go in soon.
I think they wait out as long as they can without a tower crane because due to the river they don't really need one for a while. Probably cheaper that way too
