Let's just hope that future, taller developments surround it enough to obscure it.

Couple of construction update pics...mostly infrastructure stuff:

Anyone notice that the base of the tower crane is in place now? Anyone know when that is scheduled to go up? I don't see the pieces on site.

They still need to build the remainder of the rebar cage around the feet of the tower crane base, pour the foundation, and wait approx. a week for it to cure before they can install the tower crane. So I would say a minimum 2 weeks before it goes up.

I drive by yesterday and it looks like the crane is about 280' or so. Tall enough to clear APS.

Also, you can view the crane going up live here: https://api.wetmet.net/widgets/strea...032b163a93e6b7

Sometimes the camera angle moves here and there. But right now it's pointing at downtown as of this posting.

Man that view!

With Astra, Central station, Palm tower and the new developments at Central/Filmore and South of Footprint center the skylines really going to fill out in the next 2 years.

Hopefully some form of Barrister gets revived, the Hyatt Garage happens, Edith and that additional tower on the Chase garage come through!

I have that view blown up on one of my work monitors

It's awesome to watch the planes come in for a landing as well. Best cam view in Phoenix IMHO.

It looks like there's a viewing area for construction inside of Arizona Center on the bottom left side of camera one.

Looks like a bunch of VIP's. I wonder if this is an "official" groundbreaking ceremony?

The 481,980-square-foot building’s exterior cladding will be comprised of glass and metal paneling to showcase true urban living with a unique and high-end façade.

I'm glad to read this tidbit of information. Good to see something with higher-quality materials going up. LJC also added a couple of renderings of the pool deck. Looks pretty good.

One aspect of this project that I have always been confident in - with it being a bruder design - is that we were going to get an interesting façade!

Passed by today and there appear some concrete forms in place. Doesn't appear there be any major below grade work done i.e. below grade parking.

I believe it's all podium parking.

Nice! It's surprising that 28 floors only produces 316 feet.... But I know this is a residential building that's why.. Just wish this thing were taller.. Will it even be taller than the surrounding AZ Center buildings? Like APS building?
