Generally the panels at OBP are picked directly off the truck and lifted into position. There's not much room on site to store these enormous panels, and it's much safer to keep them strapped down to the trailer until ready for use. I believe they are starting to rebuild the actual park itself, so the limited room they did have for staging is now getting even smaller.
The framing for the penthouse levels at OBP seems way behind schedule. Possibly the precaster is forcing Lendlease to take delivery of the remaining facade panels for the penthouse level even when they're not ready to install, so Related allowed Lendlease to park the trucks on their enormous piece of vacant downtown land.
