That cluster of 5 towers has the appearance of 10... Very cool effect!

Looks like the housing for the slosh bucket is in place so the extra floors are mechanical or could we be seeing a lantern?

Apparently first move-ins will be as soon as May? It looks... very nice. Prices are not as exorbitant as I would have imagined either.

This is one of those fancy new buildings for rich people, and so it has the indoor plumbing.

I believe the crane jumped again since the photo above. It is WAY up there. Looks like there are a few more levels left to go.
