I hope that they put the building maintenance unit to the south of that box instead of sticking it on top of it

Edit: Sorry I just read the last page and they are going to stick it on the top. Kinda sucks

Curious though...if that's where the mass dampening thing bob goes, why's it offset in comparison to other towers? Is it because the tower's centre of weight is also offset?
 
Obligatory shot...

Recently I’ve read reports that the tower will “soon” top out. Well, the roof is on: Is that not the definition of topped out? Or does the mechanical box need to have a roof, too?

Topping out Wiki says.....​


In building construction, topping out (also referred to as topping off or roofing ceremony) is a builders' rite traditionally held when the last beam (or its equivalent) is placed at the top of a structure during its construction. Nowadays, the ceremony is often parlayed into a media event for public relations purposes.[1] It has since come to mean more generally finishing the structure of the building, whether there is a ceremony or not. It is also commonly used to determine the amount of wind on the top of the structure.

I think it needs to have the mechanical box finished too but .....
