Is it me or has this become painfully slow. It seems like they have been moving at a glacial pace lately. I am jut dying for it to top out.

They may have focused more on the window installation.

Does this thing have a damper at the top or is the blow-through hole enough?

I am also anxious for them to top out and remove the yellow formwork, concrete pouring has definitely slowed. I don't blame them, weather probably isn't too nice above 950 feet haha.

Has multiple tuned sloshing dampers. One is in the blow-through floor itself.

Sorry for the quality, my phone is getting kinda old.
Nah, I kind of like it. Almost has a vintage tinge to it

One day we might see OCS, Vista, WPE, WPS, 400LSD, AND Trib 2 from this view. Le sigh...

Most of those buildings seem like they will happen/already are being built. Not sure what the odds of both Tribune and 400LSD (and Parcel I) happening but that would be insane.

I take it Vista will top out in a week or two?

Is Vista going to have a similar canopy like Salesforce in Cali, cuz according to my fingers it's nowhere close to being proportional to the lower half?

When she is finally fully clothed I may spend an hour or two just staring at the passing reflection of the clouds/sky on that glass. Damn
