A thousand years from now, with humans long extinct, insects, the only survivors of The Great Dying Part 2, will be crawling all over what's left of that rusty rebar.

Off-topic: I read as article in Scientific American some eons ago where is suggested skyscrapers would fall in ruin first if all humanity suddenly removed itself from the gene pool Stephen King's The Stand style. They're not really designed for the weathering unaided by human caretakers...

...hopefully they'll complete this building before then! >.<

Nothing human-made is designed to completely deny the march of time. Just sayin'. Even the Great Pyramids are doomed to crumble. It's just gonna take some time.
Even so, at least in a geologically stable area, most modern towers would take decades, even centuries, before they would come down.

So let's keep our chins up, shall we?

And I'm certain that invading aliens would upgrade any aging, failing cladding, so all would be fine. I mean, what Alpha Centaurian wouldn't want an 85th floor penthouse here? If you're going to warp that much space to get here, you're not moving into Strada.

Lot more up on site
Nikon sent my D7000 back to me Last Monday that is partly fix, as production on the the other parts due in 2022 have now been discontinue due to part shortage. Best shots until Q2 2022 when my back order D7500 may show up that was order before I sent the 7000 in for repair. Canon just informed me by Mark II camera in now in the hands of Purolator for delivery and hope it here this week. Look at using the lens of the D7000 on a Z camera, but cannot get the adapter until sometime in 2022, otherwise would have bought the camera in place of the D7500 this week. Had to scrap 12% of the shots I took for the day as well missing another 100 due to focusing.

They have dug a trench in the driveway from the site to the street to where the pump is now on the street for the concrete trucks. First time seeing this method.

I have a question for you @drum118

Every post you make that has photos of a project starts with "more up on site" or in this case "a lot more up on site"

It's gotten to the point where I often read that in my own head even before looking at any photos and I'm not even sure why lol.

But my question is, do you just mean that literally, as in the building is taller, they've buit/made progress on the site, or does it mean something else that I'm missing.

Just genuinely curious.

Thanks in advance.

Nor is anything non-human made in fact. But that's another discussion entirely.
