really? I thought you needed a few levels of elevator core to support the crane as building rises.

Cranes & elevator cores rarely have any connection with one another.
 
Pardon my ignorance - or maybe I've got a lot to learn, but how could you tell? (I'm obviously not in the construction biz)

See Jasonzed's photo above? In the excavated pit, there's a square shaped depression surrounded by an orange fence. That will be filled with a concrete pad to hold up the crane. You see it on almost every project.
 
The two additional residential levels will be placed in the middle section of both the 57s/67s buildings and according to the developer, near the floor-plan shift that dictates balcony location (29th and 30th).

The two additional floors are ICE 2 =64-65 floors and ICE 1= 54-55.

Ah... thanks. Never realized what that was - rather, didn't take notice of it until now.
