Delay in progress today...OSHA was on-site because of an incident yesterday. Obama is supposed to sign the topping out beam Thursday along with everyone else...it's then supposed to be set on Friday.

I would guess "topping out" here just means to the roof (but I could be wrong).

I really like the new base design. I never was really crazy about the chamfered corners; it just looked out of place to me and did not fit in with the rest of the building.

Regarding the comparison of the new spire to that of Liberty Place, I don't see it. I WISH it could look more like that spire; at least it still would most likely count in the overall building height, but yeah I don't see it...

From what I've learned, OSHA is only called to a construction site if there has been a death.

my bet is that the OSHA made a visit to investigate the small fire that happened a little while ago.
