thanks for the update dt ~ now that it's above ground it should start going up quickly

I'm guessing it'll probably be slow going for the next two or three months until they get up to the 7th floor where the cookie-cutter tower portion actually begins.
And I've always been curious if there will actually be 3 tall trees between those columns or if that was just a whimsical addition to the scale model. (Although I do like those trees there very much).

I never noticed that the podium was so high. Looks great.
No way those trees on the second floor are happening though.

nice to see this one taking shape....thx for the updates today, current! 
no setback from the street on this one - between this and Uptown, Balmuto is going to be unrecognizeable by Christmas...

Nice. That's the view I see on my way to work every morning.

Not a great shot, but the top of Blu can be seen with Uptown on the right

^^^ Here's my photo taken from the exact same spot on Friday:
Here's a crop and zoom of the same photo (I'm impressed that the level of detail didn't deteriorate):

From Balmuto Street, the 3rd floor looks nearly complete.
The third photo is the space between Blu & Uptown. Luckily I got a car in the photo to give the space a bit of scale.

These are great, DT. I'm surprised how fast they're both coming along. Interesting to see now how much space is actually between the towers. I thought it would be much tighter.
