Looks like a bad, Copy + Paste job, the base looks off too

Second floor is conference and the third floor is amenity / hotel. The hotel is also lower than the amenity floor. Without knowing the actual blue prints I'd imagine the very thick is partially to give space between the conference level and the amenity level both for noise buffering but also for the logistics of needing to run piping and support structures like HVAC through the level to accommodate the potentially high traffic.

Again the pace to me is AOK. I'm sure we'll see things accelerate by November or December.

Thanks for sharing I was wondering what was up with it. For sure is a bad copy past to make the tower look taller maybe lol

My monthly update (July 24)

Progress since May 25 for reference..

So the building should be finished in what, 2020!?

Thanks for the update, Shift. I am amazed that they have made very little progress in two months. I understand that the podium contains a Hotel and Residential lobby and some level of complexity, but at this rate the building estimated completion date will be in 2018.

But the complexity of the base is astronomical

The contractors are probably just trying to shave costs by limiting the amount of crew this early on. I've seen this quite a bit and things end up being delayed because of it.
