I think they are pouring the base for a crane(s). But not sure they are using the most efficient method - pouring concrete into buckets ( including an excavator’s) then driving them down the pit. I imagine the cement trucks may not be able to climb the steep ramp.

When buckets are not enough.

In the process of erecting the tower crane. Not sure if there would be a second one for the podium.

Done.

Six excavators, in decreasing order, are working in unison to eat up the remaining ramp.

The last remaining non excavated part is slowly being eaten away.

In the middle picture, it looks like they have installed a concrete pump already. I have not seen them install them underground before as they usually use mobile pumps at grade level.

That's a good eye @khaldoon . I had missed it until I went back to enlarge the original.

While construction of the first two underground floors is progressing, they are still excavating the last remaining bits.

Have not seen these machines in operation before.

How'd they get that van and truck upstairs?
