What's your problem?

We are only kidding and you seem to be taking it personally.

I'm not. I took it bad at first, because I'm a big fan of Eric Cartman, a role model for me. I'm sorry I overreacted.

Anyway. So, the construction has reached the level -3, hasn't it ? Pretty exciting.

Daquan13 · #**484** Posted **Aug 12, 2005, 1:05 PM**

No problem.

Level 3?

What level is that the woman is pictured standing on?
Is that the street level or is that also part of the ground not excavated yet?

Fabb · #**485** Posted **Aug 12, 2005, 2:30 PM**

I meant sublevel 3.

Back on subject, its good to know that theyve cleared out the clutter and they can now start going up.

CoolCzech · #**489** Posted **Aug 13, 2005, 1:49 AM**

Wow, the upward climb commences!

You're the Man, Carlos! Great pics...

STERNyc · #**490** Posted **Aug 13, 2005, 3:05 AM**

Its been exactly a year since the ground breaking and the erection of the first steel.

Daquan13 · #**491** Posted **Aug 13, 2005, 3:56 AM**

This officially signifies one thing.

That early next week the steel will soon be rising and another tower on it's way toward the sky! Good job!

Spooky873 · #**492** Posted **Aug 13, 2005, 5:13 AM**

So NYT and BOA are both rising officiallyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

NYguy · #**493** Posted **Aug 14, 2005, 5:38 PM**

Another prediction:

They'll be above street level before the first snow hits the pavement...

Jonovision · #**494** Posted **Aug 14, 2005, 8:52 PM**

Great to see it start to rise. It's gonna look so awesome!

ANOTHER CRANE RISES AT THE SITE

Fabb · #**496** Posted **Aug 18, 2005, 8:47 AM**

Good !
I hope several more will come.

NYguy · #**497** Posted **Aug 18, 2005, 12:30 PM**

All I can say is watch your back Times Tower. This one will rise fast also.

Daquan13 · #**498** Posted **Aug 18, 2005, 12:53 PM**

But the NYT Tower already has a head start. It's about 10 floors in the air now.

Fabb · #**499** Posted **Aug 18, 2005, 1:39 PM**

The architecture of BofA looks more complex, too.
I din't know in what measure it'll affect the speed of the construction, but it seems to me that the nearly identical floors of the NY Times tower should rise faster.

Daquan13 · #**500** Posted **Aug 18, 2005, 1:53 PM**

Yes.

The NYT Tower will have a straight-up even flat design like most of NYC's tall towers do, while the BOFA Tower will have a somewhat curvature inward bending design starting from about the middle to the top.
