Has this building topped out? I've noticed they haven't added any floors in a few weeks, but the cranes just extended up considerably. It needs a few more floors...

If I remember correctly, it was only going to be 8 floors and their are only finishing the first 4.  The rest are to remain as shells until they need the space.

As of this morning, the steel skeleton was pushing up higher...it looked like at least two more floors. They added several vertical beams. yea!

Top out is end of the month.  West crane needed to be tied to the building at 10th floor and jumped to full height.  You can see the columns for 10th thru 12th starting in the center. There are shell spaces, but not very many.



Look for more precast to go up the building. Curtainwall will follow once precast gets several floors up.
