The point being that this might suggest how the phasing will progress. Hope that makes sense.

sorry for the slow response - have been away and having computer memory issues.
the two cranes are at the same 'latitude', that is, even with eachother on the north-south axis. as I think you can see from this pic, the eastern crane is pretty much smack dab in the middle of the eastern tower section:
couple other shots from around the site, this one looking at the northeast corner and the little alley that divides it from Radiance:
and here looking across the Third St façade from the northwest:
over to block 13, the sidewalk along Channel is mostly complete. looking west:
... and Long Bridge has both asphalt and foliage:
the other dramatic change over the last couple weeks is the appearance of streetlights over in the northwest infrastructure area:
and, in an encouraging sign, this looks suspiciously like it could be the makings of a bike lane on Fourth:
another view, looking south:
