That's a big tree on the deck. Never noticed it before.

I'm pretty sure that is an art piece tree and not a real one. Definitely large though!

Correct, @tstormers, it's chrome. Looks pretty incredible in person!

I wonder if it'll get chrome leaves in the spring/summer

Today you can see the steel beams that support the building over the rail corridor put into place. Based off the photos from yesterday they are moving fair quickly on them. You can learn about how they work in this video 1:14:30 in

Wow - this video is completely fascinating, thank you for sharing. Would love to see similar in depth breakdowns for the structural challenges of similarly scaled buildings!

So the tower will rise over the two arms of the "Y" seen above and the sky park will extend only to the Y's junction?

An odd quirk of the diamond design is there are no blinds on those windows, which is a bit annoying on sunny days

Weirdly, more of a problem in the winter months as the midday sun, when it's out, is lower on the horizon...

Heard from some workers today that this can be opened up into a patio in the summer. It’s on the 4th floor just outside the food hall connected to the park. Previously there was an alcohol license sign for Jacob’s Stakehouse, not sure if that’s the only restaurant
