That's a... unique way of building. Will be interesting to see implemented.

Very nice indeed! So, only 2 of the 12 condos (units 1506 and 1603) have been sold. I can visualize myself buying unit 1503 (840 sqft, $499,900) when I retire. Floor plans of all condos here:

Pics from a couple days ago.





Bonus viewer from way up in Brush Park. Kinda grainy but a great comparison to the Millender Apartments and the Ren Cen.

Thanks for the various updates! This is looking good - it will be really exciting once they start setting floor plates up in the air (looks like the first one is close to being ready to be lifted into place).

This is the kind of perspective we need on the Hudson's site!

Looks like the first floor plate is up! Pretty big milestone for this project. https://www.crainsdetroit.com/real-e...struction-time

^ Very neat view (with a very typical Michigan spring backdrop). Here's the image from the article -

How long does it take to construct a new floor once the previous one is safely in place?

I'm guessing they will target one floor a week if it's just the floorplate itself.

But it depends how much other work they want to do in the lowered position. Are they gonna frame the perimeter walls, do exterior cladding, floor penetrations etc before the lift, or will they come back and do it later as in a traditional highrise? The promise of this system is to do as much work as possible on the ground, but that means probably 2-3 weeks per floor.

Is this still the plan with this? I doubt they will complete it before then at this rate.

There's no way it'll be completed in a little over two months lol

Nice work! I especially appreciate the perspective of that last shot, showing it's relationship with the Hudson's site.

Right now it looks like a giant construction trailer office set atop two elevator cores.

So that took ~ 1 month for the top floor (based on the time between when the roof plate was hoisted up and now)?

Curious if that will speed up, or if 1 month will be the average. If it's one month, I'm not sure this is saving much time. Maybe it depends on how "finished" the interior is, before each floor is lifted.

Any theories on why they did the lift in the middle of the night?

I hope this construction method doesn't become part of a larger trend because I really don't like what I'm seeing here.
