I want to expand on my observations gleaned from other people's photos (I haven't been to the area since January).

Your photo from late May shows the wheeled hydraulic Bay Crane sitting in the 15HY area and the 325ccr photo from last weekend shows what this crane has erected. This photo is looking ESE from the 11th Ave viaduct with 10 HY , "The HIgh Line at the Rail Yards" and Abington House in the background, right. The 45,875 sq. ft. Fairway store will also extend under the High Line to provide entrances on 30th street, which is also where their loading dock entrance and below street grade parking garage entrance will be

I don't recall if there are more recent predictions other than the Fairway Market is supposed to open in 2015, which I still can believe:

I do have doubts that the 15HY base (bottom left of blue-shaded structures) will get to what is shown below for 2014:
