You're on the money! That's exactly what that outline is:

Because this is a mainly core supported building, I presume they don't need to anchor that portion of the building in with a foundation.

is that 38 elevators in the lobby plus 2 larger service elevators ?

Yup. Some of the elevators will only go up part way up the tower. High rise, Mid rise and lower rise sections.

Something to stay tuned too?

I believe they are...just not the same shape.

They were not originally proposed as the same shape, but that changed as the design evolved: they will be the same shape.

Pictures taken July 8
One busy site and not much room.

Such a tight sight! Exciting to see them dig but then you realize it's gonna be another year or so until this actually starts rising above ground. At least we have the first tower to admire while we wait.

You think it will be that long? I would think it will be well above ground in 6 months. All depends I guess, because 160 Front seemed to take a year to get where it's at now after shovels first went in the ground.

Compare the above pic to the very first post all the way back on page 1 of this thread, and I'd say what we've ended up with is even better than the original vision.

Oh...almost missed this.

So to clarify, are we talking about the area of the construction site or the footprint of the building itself?

Different shape for the former; the same shape for the latter as I understand it. Unless I got that wrong.
