Heads up that Philly By Drone's Christopher Kao has posted fresh (today) drone photos of CTC on his download page.

Humans are no longer required. Drones take the best pictures.

Ran into new drywall coming out from under the Comcast Center's food court today. Looks like preparations for the tunnel breaking through.

Those drone shots are frickin amazing. Highest quality, shows you exactly what's going on up there, and they've got a lovely gray sky over them.

And it's good that 18th Street is closer to reopening. I keep on ending up there and needing to walk over to 17th.

What's the final plan there? Is it going to reopen to auto traffic or be pedestrian only?

Thank you @summers343 for the feature of our drone photos. I'm always eager to share the drone shots of buildings with you guys first. I'm posting the aerials that I took of Vue 32, 1213 Walnut, and East Market.

I think you need two levels of that steel section before you hit the 995'. I'm guessing we are still only at about 950'.

Totally. I think we are all going to be surprised by how visually substantial the cooling tower/spire will be.

If it hit 950 then it passed One Liberty Place, now the second tallest building in both Pennsylvania and Philadelphia!
