How the fudge is this thing so slow?

Well, it’s probably the most complicated building being built in the city, and the nicest. So there’s that. At least there’s been some progress. For comparison, here’s a photo I took from Sept 23, 2020

It helps to look back and see how much they've accomplished since just last Spring.

I snapped this shot back on May 5th...

I'd say they've definitely made solid progress in the last 6 months.

Only 9 more years until it's topped out. It will be here before we know it

It's also the tight location of the lot they have to build that in. And the logistics of supplying the materials to that. Or tl,dr: It's tedious to build, I gather. >.<

The cladding screams Norman Foster to me.. which makes sense because it's Foster+Partners.

I am sure they will clad the wall with Italian Marble to make it look aesthetically pleasing.

It looks like the passageways will be clad with arched metals in the restaurant. Maybe brass?

As seen on the right of this pic.

Making good use of the ceiling height.

No room for civilians. It's just there to protect Apple merchandise.
