Glad to see a pile driver on site :tup:

It is on site but it has not done any work as of yet.

No work yet, but I see that they have at least moved it :). It looks like a few extra construction materials have arrived also.

They have started drilling the piling holes. Hopefully the snow won't slow them down!

Most awesome! :cheers:

Still not much action, but more supplies have arrived and the pile driver has moved.

Nice to see 2 pile drivers. It won't be long before excavation starts.

Qualex-Landmark is going full bore. They now have three caisson drills working onsite. I think they will be digging before First.

I noticed they now have three. They must be anxious tom get this one going!

Pile drivers are gone and the digging has started. Just as I thought that Mark would get digging before First.

Wow, that was quick! I didn't take them long to get those piles in there, and it didn't take them long to get the pile drivers off site. They were still there yesterday.

I think they want this building to start to rise to increase sales, before 6th and Tenth and maybe Astoria get going.

is this building experiencing problems with the flooding now? are any holes flooded?

The site is soggy but they are on a bit higher ground away from the river so they got missed by the river going over its banks.

Is construction going again?

^^^ Yes
