Yes, two of them are cladded around. There's no way they wouldn't make them, if the tower didn't have them the wind would blow it down

i can understand why its going slow, but is there any word on when the major work on cladding the crown might be done by?

or any guesses?

i've been in midtown a lot lately and it seems rather stuck ???

of course we are all just very anxious to see that and see it lit up.

Not stuck at all, the terracotta and bronze cladding is a level under the concrete roof and glass is 8 floors under the windbreaker floor
