You just wanted to be able to say steel erection....

Doesn't every guy?

I'm liking the progress on this one, I can't wait to see the steel go up. Some photos from my Saturday outing:

First steel beams have been erected, using some special mobile crane.
Why couldn't they use the previous mobile crane on site, or even the main crane?
I also wonder why they have started doing this at night, safety reasons maybe?

have a look:

The beams look incredible from street level. I'll grab some pics today and post later. In all the core is almost up to our 10th floor lunch room (10 + Mezz, so 11 stories in all.

^ But the floors are solid concrete.

Actaully the floors are empty so stairwell makes sense.

Thanks for the photo. Exciting.

Seeing those columns go up is like hearing the *tikatikatika* of the incline on a roller coaster before it goes over the edge!

Whenever Trump saves enough of his allowance to rent that crane these two sites will look amazing going up together...

This has been almost as exciting as the great Liebeskind Cladding Vigil, which some of you might be old enough to recall.

(But not quite.)

Just you wait until the thrill of watching paint dry on the thing, smartypants. You ain't seen nothing yet!

A few pics from today - my cam seems choppy - new, I haven't figured out the settings just yet. I'm guessing there's plenty more time to try eh...
