Yes they are and I’ve been wondering the same thing it seems like something they should do with all the attention to historical detail it seems a pretty glaring oversight. If I had to take an uneducated shot in the dark my thoughts drift to wanting to getting work done in the order of most important to least in terms of structural and interior work. Although as they’ve put finishing touches on the exterior it makes me wonder if they’re going to leave em as is.
^You picked a great day to take that video Northone the limestone really looks amazing with the sun washed blue sky. Imo it would have been cool to get some presence shots added in showing the different look Michigan Central gives parts of the surrounding area like from the center of the new construction around Michigan & Trumbull.
