they have started the floor for the next level of the King/Madison tower. they have just started doing rebar works for the Cameron/Charles tower (the raft slab has sat the same for what feels like at least a month). overall the work seems to have been slowing down lately, the site is getting more and more crowded everyday with less space for the mobile crane and the materials to sit, hopefully that's a sign of the rest of a tower crane or the other tower crane.

There was a concrete pour today for the first floor of the Cameron tower. I'll try to get a picture.

This site seems like such a mess.

I agree DK519. Also what's the holdup with that 1 crane?

At this point this project is such a gong show that I don't even know any road closures for this project have appeared about two days before they happened so we can't really tell when the tower cranes are going up. Those blue pieces have been sitting there for about two weeks now and all they've done is put some sort of spray on them. The white piece is new as of a couple of days ago. It could be drewlo waiting for the rest of the pieces or as I previously mentioned something to do with how this half built tower crane is different than the typical ones that we see. But drewlo is just a general gong shows so who knows.

Great post ZEBuilder! This development is wacky, most would have a crane by now.

Looking from the train this morning, it almost seemed like the crane tower stump was not level. Might have been an illusion caused by my brain in the early morning, but it's also somewhat possible...

Which one the half erected one or the one that is just the base? If you saw it from the ion it could just have been an illusion caused by the little bit of a hill on Charles.

The half erected one. And yes, likely an illusion.

It's Drewlo, after all.

Is Drewlo the developer on the Fallowfield towers? If so, the construction was way smoother then this one, even crane wise, lol

I believe so. Those tower's were much smoother than this project.
