May 2: A closer look at the balcony railings.

The "podium" (why would a slab form like this need a "podium" in the first place?*) is rough. And its endless window wall cladding reinforces the problem.
*Not saying there is never a time and place for that... but in a city where podiums serve as the default "solution", I don't understand why, when given the opportunity, the design team wouldn't have wanted to do something different here. This was an opportunity for a great canyon building and yet it falls short of that. It doesn't feel robust or urban. Missed opportunity.

...looks like they're starting to prep the holders for those triangular balcony dividers.
