Thanks for the diagrams & reminders. i've found this somewhat confusing as well AND I've actually been to these sites a few times in the last half year...
I've posted a snip of a hardcore shutterbug/flckr view from the Ohm building that gives an oblique view of 33rd to 37th streets. The snip includes all the MTA sites in this area that will turn into buildings or Hudson Blvd Park.
View is looking north from the Ohm, south side of 30th street; 11th Ave is just out-frame-left. High concrete wall at bottom is privacy/security wall for LIRR West Side Storage Yard. Hudson Blvd East starts just above top of yellow construction crane in bottom right: it is elevated quite a bit above 33rd St and has a bunch of construction/storage trailers parked on it.
The 3 Hudson Blvd site still has a construction vent (the right angle orange tube at left) coming out of the under-construction #7 subway station, BUT the site (two white telescoping cranes, NOT Hudson Blvd Park) does seem to have some columns rising from the ground...

AND the presumed columns on the 3 HB site do not seem to be in this photo from a 5/7 article in engadget by Joesph Volpe. This photo's look angle is slightly different due to be taken from the under construction 10 HY (NE of the Ohm building). The 3 HB site is above the 34th St subway entrance/canopy in this screen capture. MAYBE the MTA's contractors are starting to turn over the site to Moinan - guess on my part.:
