Interesting (slash slightly strange) that they backfilled the site with soil again. Maybe to get the equipment out of the site?

The earthen ramp has been moved from the current location to the opposite corner a few times depending on what side they are working on. That ramp allows them to move stuff in and out of the site and load or unload from trucks.

Makes sense. Looks like progress is being made. Wonder when they'll go vertical? Maybe February / March?

Keep the photos coming!

Appreciate the update 401.

TechTalkGuy · #**166** Posted **Dec 8, 2012, 6:20 AM**

Work on the foundation underway!

I am going to my friend's apartment on Monday so I will get a shot from the 26th floor.

Wow, that corner parking lot must have been worth a gigantic fortune. I wish I was the lucky bastard who owned it.

It gets dark so early in the winter, this is the best I could do.

Nice update, looks like they're almost done with site prep/excavation.

sbarn · #**171** Posted **Dec 11, 2012, 6:04 PM**

Thanks for the update!

Can't wait for the next construction phase on this one. I'm so impatient, ha.

yankeesfan1000 · #**172** Posted **Dec 20, 2012, 7:23 PM**

Saw a concrete truck on Park Ave South right in front of the site a few hours ago for the first time. Can someone with a view of the site confirm they are pouring?

sbarn · #**173** Posted **Jan 8, 2013, 9:05 PM**

Anyone have a photo update on this project? Thanks!

Maybe DesignerVoodoo can get a better angle from his friends place.

sbarn · #**175** Posted **Jan 9, 2013, 4:08 PM**

Great, thank you!

I wonder when they'll start building up? I'm guessing late-spring, early summer?

nycaddict · #**176** Posted **Jan 9, 2013, 9:45 PM**

is this the so called "fortress of glassitude" that was on curbed?

Working hard on a cold January morning. No more dirt piles. Getting the sub-floor ready. Should be rising soon!!

Great update, can't wait to see the shape of this tower.

Finally pouring the subfloor and it's only UP from here!!!

And I don't know if you have noticed, but it looks like a pool in the first basement floor has already been created.
