philadelphia: comcast center construction in the fog

giovanni sasso · #1 Posted **Dec 18, 2006, 6:19 PM**

ain't that a bitch, anyway. two weeks straight of unbelievably clear, sunny, photo friendly weather and the one day i get access to the site, the clouds roll in. eh, what can ya do.

while it was a slow drizzle on the ground, it was driving wind and rain up top since, you know, you're in the middle of a cloud and what not. these are from last wednesday. the ones up high are from the 33rd floor (the highest with floor plates usable by non-labor). as of today, the concrete's at 52, the steel is at 46 or 47 and the glass is on 7ish.

more here if you're interested.

Awesome, and I think I'm going to be sick.

Great photos; scary altitude. Also, I don't think that I would want to take a swim at the Hotel Windsor any time soon.

Fog wishes it could look this good!

I don't really know what that meant, but Kudos for the shots, no doubt.
